He has this off season to decide if he wants to play football or be a rapper.

on a side note, does every NFL player think they will be a rap star?

I don’t think Toney is really “hurt” I think the drops and such have him so mind ****ed they can’t play him

[Pasta Little Brioni]

One hit and Lamar may make a "business decision " like he did last year...

Sitting out a playoff game when he could have played.....pathetic

The units honestly remind me of each other a ton. Great at LB. Good secondaries. Veteran DL that plays good as a group.

Then Playoff Patrick happened. Went through 'em like a hot knife through better from start to finish, 13 seconds and all.

That Buffalo group blew a lot of teams out too...

I think this is a fair comparison. I think the CB are roughly equal, and Hamilton is better than Poyer/Hyde, though the Bills combo is probably as good as the Ravens.

I don’t expect the Chiefs O to just hot knife through them because the personnel isn’t as difficult to defend as that 20-21 Chiefs offense with Hill, but the Chiefs’ defense is also considerably better.

I think it’s smart. Put him on ice for the rest of this season regardless.

Let him have the offseason, bring him back because he’s cheap talent, and give him another shot next regular season when the stakes aren’t so high.

If we’re still dealing with these issues next year then you will know it’s time to move on.

Nah I think it’s just a move on thing

I disagree. We traded picks for him and he’s cost-controlled for another year. At worst he’s a cheap body with talent to fill out the bottom of the WR roster.

I think cutting him would be a terrible move, especially when you consider the fact that we will likely have to make some tough decisions on MVS, Moore and Hardman already. I don’t think we can realistically part with all four of them in one offseason.

[RunKC]

Yeah I don't think Toney is on this team next year. Only a $2.5 million hit which really isn't much at all.

Time to put clown shoes on Ronald McDonald's defense

But it’s not tough decisions.

They’ll all be gone.

The guy can’t play an afc champ game because of “personal reasons”. You don’t think the other guys in the locker room will notice that?

It’s over.

[O.city]

Sky moore will absolutely be on the roster next year though

Why waste a roster spot on him? All he ever has is this "potential" that he's never really come close to realizing because of his mistakes on the field, because of injuries, and because of whatever he's going through right now whether it's the yips or really is injuries. Is rather have Watson at the bottom of the WR depth chart.

[Chiefspants]

If it's a mental thing, he could be gone.

Remember the whispers that he struggling to learn the playbook and it was limiting his snap count earlier in the season?

If he has a mental block from getting on the field right now, at some point the amount of draft capital we invested on him isn't going to matter when we'd be literally better off having Skyy put up a 0/0. At some point, just declare victory on the trade for having Toney land us Super Bowl 57 and wish him the best on a mental reset on another team.

Might as well. Makes the most sense. He didn't get an offseason/preseason this year and it looks like it ****ed his season. Perhaps get him all the reps and preseason snaps you can. If he's not healthy come cut down day let him go.
