Wide receiver Marcus Kemp took Watkins’ place with the starters and produced another exceptional performance. The first play during the team’s scrimmage period was a quick pass to Kemp, who ran a slant route from the slot position. Later in practice, Kemp made a diving catch in the middle of the field with cornerback Kendall Fuller close behind him in coverage during the team’s 7-on-7 period. Kemp also ran past cornerback Charvarius Ward for a long reception from Mahomes that would’ve led to a touchdown in a game.
“Kemp is a very, very consistent player,” said Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy. “He doesn’t receive the attention that he normally receives because he’s one of those guys who’s a jack of all trades. He’s just a guy you plug in on special teams and he’s made his mark there. People forget how good of a receiver he is. He’s a big-body receiver, he knows the entire offense, and he just comes out here and makes plays.”

Man our WR core is deep. Dieter is clearly toast and probably headed to IR.
The Giants, the Jets, and several other teams might be good trade partners for one of our extra WR.
