@rockchalkjayhawk I know Melo was and another, but I forgot
surprised about skinner and Grimm
-
@rockchalkjayhawk @Crimsonorblue22
Bean was cut by the Colts, too.
-
Really? That’s a bummer.
-
Ugh. Looks like Rice has accepted a 6 game suspension to start the year.
-
@mayjay boo!
-
LB Cam Jones and OT Esa Pole, both waived by Chiefs, were picked up by the Jets.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Hardman signed with Packers.
-
Personally I am more than good with Mecole and Skyy Moore never playing for KC again.
-
Super Bowl LVIII, baby! Hardman with the walkoff TD. Hard to say i’d never want him back
-
Lots of familiar faces on KC practice squad. From SI:
Offensive linemen Chu Godrick (international player pathway exemption) and C.J. Hanson, defensive backs Mike Edwards, Kevin Knowles and Melvin Smith, running backs Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Carson Steele, quarterback Chris Oladokun, defensive linemen Coziah Izzard, Brodric Martin and MArlon Tuipulotu, wide receivers Hal Presley and Jimmy Holiday and tight end Tre Watson and linebacker Cole Christiansen.

The question becomes for the Jayhawks, will any of them get on as a practice squad member. Bean looks like the best QB on that roster when he plays to me. I ain’t at practice everyday but that is a sorry QB room IMO
-
@mayjay where is Kobe? #2
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Cobee, KU’s #2? He was put on inactive/nonfootball (injury? or other reason?) status back in late July by Atlanta (who signed him as undrafted FA). Don’t know why…
-
I would like to have Mecole as a special teams player and a depth piece, as long as he isn’t our WR2 like he used to be. That said, having him or not having him doesn’t really move the needle that much.
-
CEH on the practice squad it sounds like. Not the RB I was expecting to be added to the roster. Good guy, ok half back.
-
Good moves by Veach getting handshake deals done with the vets and stashing them on the practice squad - Pennel and Tonyan. Bottom end of the roster guys rarely move the needle, but Pennel has come up big before.
Correction - Pennel is not signed. Mike Edwards was.
-
@mayjay yes, Cobee! Heard it was a hamstring.

Ugh. Super ugh. Anybody can do better.

I have yet to see any report of Pennel re-signing as expected. Not on any lists in about 5 sources I’ve checked. Last I counted, Chiefs have 16 on practice squad so he could well be the last one to sign.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Practice squad. He should never play.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Cobee just signed to be on Atlanta practice squad.
-
Veach says Pennel could be back before or during season. They preferred Nnadi because he is 5 years younger, but they are still looking at DLs throughout the league. Hard to get good trades for KC because of both draft position (31) and no extra early round picks to entice other teams.
-
Have we picked up any free agents yet?
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Technically, everyone we cut who didn’t have to go through waivers, but we then re-signed, was a free agent…temporarily. That is why I’m nervous about Pennel if they dawdle too much!
-
@rockchalkjayhawk No free agents, since training camp started, have been added to the 53 man roster. Just some scrubs to the practice squad.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk said in 2025 Chiefs:
Not a good spot to post this, but I see two former Jayhawk receivers were waived today.
Quentin Skinner was released by the Jets today.
Luke Grimm released by the Chargers.
Any others?
God how I wish they could come back. Difference makers. Here’s hoping some guys this year can step up to make me not long to hear the names Skinner and Grimes.
