The Kansas City Chiefs are making another roster move at tight end early in training camp. The Chiefs have had to shuffle around their roster at tight end in the previous couple of weeks due to injuries.
The Kansas City Chiefs signed a familiar tight end recently
As previously discussed on GH, the Chiefs signed a familiar face, Izaiah Gathings, due to an injury to Gerrit Prince:
Per the league’s transaction wire, the Chiefs brought back tight end Izaiah Gathings, who spent time on the Chiefs during the 2023 season…
The Steelers released Gathings in early June. The New York Jets initially signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2023.
The Chiefs would waive Prince.
Gathings could be feeling the heat from a rookie out of Mississippi State.
Geor’quarius Spivey is signing with the Chiefs
According to Aaron Wilson with KPRC, the Chiefs are signing Geor’quarius Spivey to the 90-man roster following a workout with the team.
Per Mississippi State’s website, Spivey appeared in 52 games in his college career and made eight starts. He transferred to TCU from Mississippi State following the 2020 season. He transferred back to Mississippi State before the 2023 season but did not play in the 2023 season after the NCAA denied him eligibility:
Did not appear in any games due to the NCAA denying his transfer wavier from TCU following the Horned Frogs CFP Championship game in early January … Continued to practice with the team in prep for the NFL draft.
Spivey recorded 28 total receptions for 298 yards and one touchdown in his college career.
