Outstanding article! Always enjoy the in-depth pieces on the evolution / history. We have a random switch to defense to fill a vacancy at Lafayette College in the mid-80s to thank for this greatness?! Wild! @bynatetaylor.bsky.social

A repost. Steve Spagnuolo’s start in football — & his indoctrination into coaching — was as a high school quarterback. Inside the secret ingredient fueling the NFL’s most decorated defensive coordinator. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

New story. In his much-anticipated return, Xavier Worthy's speed, production & presence helped unlock the Chiefs offense. "He's shown that he can be a guy that can do everything. This is the role we expected him to be in & he's showcased it today." www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

They've had about 4 more injuries since the game started, too.

This is pretty close to be a zipper game, based on the creativity shown today compared to the first three games.

You just knew this was going to be said by somebody at some point.

Guys, Harrison Butker is the NFL's highest-paid kicker.

I laughed here in the press box.

Halftime: Chiefs 20, Ravens 10. What does everyone think?

...weird game, huh?

Very mindful how Xavier Worthy slid after his 37-yard catch to protect his right shoulder.

That play is not designed for rookie Brashard Smith, who still got 17 yards by breaking multiple tacklers.

The Ravens go right down the field, scoring on a nifty inside screen from Lamar Jackson to Justice Hill for an 11-yard touchdown. If you're wondering, Chris Jones -- who missed pregame returning from his aunt's funeral -- was the lone lineman to record a pressure on Jackson.

The Chiefs won the toss. You know what happened next.

Here are the Chiefs’ inactive players for today’s game against the Ravens -- Mike Danna (left hip), Kristian Fulton (left ankle), Elijah Mitchell, Jared Wiley, Jason Brownlee, Hunter Nourzad & Brodric Martin. As expected, Xavier Worthy (right shoulder) is back in the lineup.

New story. Steve Spagnuolo’s start in football — & his indoctrination into coaching — was through the sport's most important position. Yes, he was once a quarterback. Inside the secret ingredient fueling the NFL’s most decorated defensive coordinator. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

New story. In 2 games, Isiah Pacheco & Kareem Hunt have combined to record just 94 rushing yards. Such ineffectiveness has placed a larger burden on Patrick Mahomes. On the Chiefs searching for an identity & a spark on the ground against the Giants. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Halftime: Chiefs 10, Eagles 10. What does everyone think?

Remember the Super Bowl, when the Eagles sacked Patrick Mahomes 6 times despite never blitzing? Well, Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has already blitzed Mahomes on 4 of his 10 dropbacks, leading to a 3rd-down sack. Harrison Butker is good from 56 yards. Eagles up 7-3.

Harrison Butker is wide right from 58 yards.

The Chiefs won the toss. You know what happened next.

Here are the Chiefs’ inactive players for today’s rematch against the Eagles -- Xavier Worthy (right shoulder), Jaylen Royals (right knee), Jared Wiley, Elijah Mitchell, Hunter Nourzad & Malik Herring. Omarr Norman-Lott, the Chiefs’ 2nd-round pick, will make his NFL debut.

Andy Reid said it’s “slim” that Xavier Worthy (right shoulder) plays Sunday against the Eagles. “He did a little bit of team work (Friday), but that was it,” Reid said of Worthy. “He’s doing very well.”

New story. Travis Kelce took blame for Xavier Worthy's right shoulder injury last week. Andy Reid said Worthy doesn't need surgery & the team doesn't plan to place him on IR. The Chiefs are hopeful Worthy can return in a couple of weeks. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

New story. The Chiefs & Trent McDuffie are not expected to agree to a multiyear contract extension before Friday’s season opener. “Moving forward now, really, it’s just about the season & about (Friday’s) game.” www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Andy Reid said the lone player on the active roster who is not expected to participate in today’s practice is rookie Jalen Royals (knee tendinitis).

New story. Day after day after the Super Bowl, Travis Kelce kept saying the same phrase: “I can’t go out like that!” If this is Kelce’s last ride, he’s hoping to pull off a grand finish. On how Kelce has prepared for what could be his final season. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Felix Anudike-Uzomah, the Chiefs' 1st-round pick in 2023, will be placed on injured reserve with a right strained hamstring, per the team. His season ends before the preseason finale.

Andy Reid on Hollywood Brown (right ankle & foot) returning to practice & the possibility of him playing a few snaps Friday night: "We'll see how he progresses through this thing. It's not a matter of want. He wants to do it. He's taking it slow & we don't want any setbacks."

Andy Reid said Felix Anudike-Uzomah (hamstring strain) could be placed on injured reserve, thus ending his season. Nazeeh Johnson (strained shoulder) & Jalen Royals (knee tendentious) are not expected to practice today. Reid said he expects to starters to play Friday.

New story. Travis Kelce knows each new season in the NFL is a different one from previous years. Kelce revealed Wednesday that his mindset for the Chiefs' 2025 campaign is somewhat different from last year. "I've thrown that thing in the trash." www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

New story. Josh Simmons hasn’t had a day off since the Chiefs selected him in the NFL draft. The rookie’s diligence has led to him earning the starting left tackle spot. On the newest blind side protector for Patrick Mahomes. “He’s a gifted dude.” www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Not sure why, but Skyy Moore just sat in the cart & went up the hill.

Hollywood Brown sat in the front of the cart. His day is done.

Hollywood Brown came up limping in the back of the end zone with what appeared to be a right lower leg injury.

Another note for today. In a full team period in the red zone, Jaylon Moore has entered the 1st-team offense at LG in place of Kingsley Suamataia.

Three consecutive days in full pads, it was bound to happen: We have a punch. Josh Simmons punched fellow rookie Ashton Gillotte after a rugged 9-on-7 period repetition. Gillotte removed Simmons’ helmet. I cannot properly describe to you how miserable it is out here in St. Joe.

Patrick Mahomes just checked on Xavier Worthy in the medical tent. Mahomes didn’t stay long. He dapped up Worthy. A few minutes later, Worthy was back with his teammates with his helmet in his hands.
