The Kansas City Chiefs once again own the best record in the NFL. Through their first seven games, Kansas City is 7-0 and atop the AFC Standings.
Their hot start hasn’t stopped them from adding to their team before the trade deadline. DeAndre Hopkins and Josh Uche will both finish the season with Kansas City.
“On The Brink” Chiefs Reportedly About To Pull Off 3rd In-Season Trade
According to Alex Hoegler of Total Pro Sports:
Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are football’s last undefeated team with a 7-0 record heading into their Monday night showdown with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium.
GM Brett Veach acquired Hopkins and Uche in a matter of days. Now, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that the defending Super Bowl champions may be working on trading for a cornerback:
“The Super Bowl champion Chiefs have been aggressive on the trade market, and they might not be done. Kansas City addressed two needs with trades for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and pass rusher Joshua Uche in back-to-back weeks.
But cornerback remains a need after Jaylen Watson went down for the season, and the belief is that Kansas City is at least monitoring that market close to the deadline. The Chiefs are not pressed to make a move but will be open to it, and their 2025 draft haul is still in good shape after acquiring a third-round pick in the L’Jarius Sneed trade. The Chiefs also love retreads, players who know their culture, so it’s noteworthy that former Chiefs Marcus Peters and Steven Nelson are still out there on the free agency market.”
The Chiefs lost standout corner Jaylen Watson for the year with a broken tibia and fibula, leaving them shorthanded in the secondary. The 26-year-old emerged as a key starter following the offseason L’Jarius Sneed trade to the Tennessee Titans, recording six pass breakups in as many games before his injury.
Kansas City has a knack for adding talent at the trade deadline at positions of concern. This year was no different, and it looks like they might not be done yet.
