    The Kansas City Chiefs enter the 2025 NFL season with plenty of motivation after a heartbreaking loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 59. Determined to make another run at the title, the team got a major boost as mandatory minicamp came to a close. Head coach Andy Reid delivered the best possible update to the media—news that could shape the Chiefs’ path back to the big game.

    Injuries took a toll on the Chiefs throughout last season, yet they still managed to reach their third consecutive Super Bowl. While the final outcome fell short of their goal, it wasn’t all that surprising—the wear and tear of a long, demanding season finally caught up with them at the worst possible moment.

    With training camp on the horizon, Chiefs fans have reason for optimism. When asked about the progress of first-round pick Josh Simmons and wide receiver Rashee Rice, head coach Andy Reid offered a positive update on two key pieces of his roster.

    “I think they’re both ready to go. Yeah, they actually got great work in these camps here,” Reid remarked as he addressed the media.

    The Chiefs selected rookie tackle Josh Simmons in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, despite his torn patella suffered during the 2024 season. Fortunately, reports from March indicated that Simmons was “way ahead of schedule” in his recovery. Had he been fully healthy, he likely would’ve gone much earlier in the draft, making Kansas City’s pick at the end of the first round potentially one of the biggest steals.

    Rashee Rice went down with a torn ACL in Week 4 of the 2024 season, forcing him to miss the bulk of the year. He had been a major contributor in 2023, recording 79 receptions, 938 yards, and seven touchdowns. If Rice can return to that form in 2025, he has the potential to significantly boost Kansas City’s offensive firepower.

    It’ll be interesting to see how the Chiefs take shape during training camp in late July and August. With the expected returns of Josh Simmons and Rashee Rice, Kansas City could have long-term stability at both offensive tackle and wide receiver—and the rest of the AFC should be paying attention.
