The Kansas City Chiefs are in a unique position. With the current lease at the Truman Sports Complex expiring in 2031 and Jackson County voters overwhelmingly rejecting a 40-year extension of the three-eighths of a cent sales tax on April 2, could the Chiefs move from Kansas City, Missouri to Kansas City, Kansas? Momentum seems to be swinging toward the Kansas side of the state line after . Shortly after those remarks, renderings of a domed Kansas stadium made headlines.  The stadium renderings that were released are not affiliated with the Chiefs but were brought forth by Kansas City-bas ..read more

by Joshua Brisco

Earlier in the offseason, the Kansas City Chiefs restructured the contract of quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Later, after most of free agency had come and gone, they traded away franchise-tagged cornerback L'Jarius Sneed. Now, before signing their 2024 draft class, the Chiefs have over $15 million in salary cap space (16th in the NFL) according to Spotrac. What will the Chiefs do with that space? Albert Breer of SI gave his perspective on KC's next move — or lack thereof. In a new mailbag on SI.com, Breer took a question about the Chiefs' cap space and what KC plans to do with the space, and Bre ..read more

by Jordan Foote

Just months ago, there were questions about whether Kadarius Toney would still be with the Kansas City Chiefs for the NFL offseason. The former first-round pick is still on the roster, although the club took an expected measure on Thursday to ensure that it won't be responsible for a hefty chunk of change in 2025. Kansas City declined Toney's fifth-year option this week. Had the franchise picked it up at Thursday's deadline, Toney would be earning $14.3 million in fully guaranteed money a year from now. It's a move just about anyone could've predicted. With it becoming official, though, it kee ..read more

Tamba Hali: 'Beast' Growing in George Karlaftis, Felix Anudike-Uzomah
Sports Illustrated » Kansas City Chiefs
by Jordan Foote
2d ago
Over the past few years, Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach has gotten younger at the defensive end position. The group remains mostly youthful entering 2024, especially with 26-year-old Mike Danna re-signed and 26-year-old Charles Omenihu working his way back from a torn ACL. A large reason why is the investment of first-round picks in George Karlaftis (2022) and Felix Anudike-Uzomah (2023). As those players advance in their NFL careers, they're getting a boost from a Kansas City legend. Over the weekend, longtime Chiefs pass rusher Tamba Hali got news that he's being inducted int ..read more

With the 2024 NFL Draft now in the rearview mirror, teams are mostly set with the rosters they'll have as they enter training camp to prepare for the NFL season.

Brett Veach Reveals Where Chiefs Had Kingsley Suamataia on Draft Board
Sports Illustrated » Kansas City Chiefs
by Jordan Foote
3d ago
In a surprising development, the Kansas City Chiefs invested three of their 2024 NFL Draft selections on the offensive line. Each pick made sense, sure, but seeing general manager Brett Veach pounce on that many opportunities to fortify the front five caught some off guard. Landing BYU tackle Kingsley Suamataia at pick No. 63 may have been even more shocking. Suamataia represented Kansas City's second-round haul, providing the franchise with a good blend of youth, athleticism and upside. This came after the club traded up four spots in round one to draft Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy. Beli ..read more
