The Kansas City Chiefs entered the offseason with a major problem around All-Pro quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

During the 2023 campaign, no receiving corps dropped more passes than the Chiefs, during a season that began on an ominous note when Kadarius Toney had a ball bounce of his hands that was returned for a touchdown in Kansas City’s Week 1 loss to the Detroit Lions.
Thanks to a marquee veteran addition and investing a top pick in the position, the talent around Mahomes is almost unquestionably stronger than the group that opened the 2023 campaign.
More of The Same for Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs Wide Receivers?

Even after signing Marquise “Hollywood” Brown and drafting Xavier Worthy in the first round of the draft, the 2024 season for the Chiefs may be a case of the more things change the more they stay the same.
CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin put together a list of the one thing we believe we know about every team across the NFL in 2024, including the Chiefs “prepping to rotate all kinds of receivers again.”
“It’s ultimately worked just fine for Patrick Mahomes and Co. the last two seasons,” Benjamin writes. “But with 2023 standout Rashee Rice in legal trouble, their two new speedsters — veteran Marquise Brown and rookie Xavier Worthy — could share valuable reps.”
The battle for the spot at the top of the Chiefs’ depth chart could come down to Brown and Worthy, but, Kansas City may once again spend significant time looking for a third receiver to emerge alongside its top two wideouts and All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce.
