Called it.

Jesus Christ.

well, thanks for a few years ago

That has to mean they are targeting a FA OT

Back surgery & torn Achilles don't equate to being back by training camp.

Guy was great until the injury this year. Back injuries don't **** around. Good luck to Mitch

Had heard from locals in Ohio that his injury last year was likely career ending. Seemed hard to believe back then, but it looks like they were right.

Agreed. They also are likely to leave the Draft with minimum of 2 picks on OL if not 3.

They have to protect Mahomes, at all costs....

We have released RT Mitchell Schwartz.

We'll never forget his 7,894 snap-streak. Thank you Mitchell for five incredible seasons.

For all the chiefs brain trusts that said we couldn’t cut injured players. Veech sees you

whoa.

will they look at Reilly Reiff?

They're going to be paying them unless the players agree to injury settlements.

You can't JUST cut an injured player, that's been the argument all along and it still holds true.

The Chiefs will have a nominal cap hit for both players and be responsible for paying for their rehab at the very least, absent an injury settlement.

Thank you Fish and Schwartz
