Kadarius Toney told me he’s “definitely” playing on Sunday. He suffered an ankle injury in the AFC championship game.

In a departure from expectations this afternoon, Chiefs CB L’Jarius Sneed was on the field for some stretching and conditioning that would put him in the next stage of the concussion protocol, a very good sign for him.

"He did a great job of playing in that game, very courageous effort," Reid said of Hardman. "My heart goes out to the kid. He is hurting."

.@adamteicher to @J810Anderson on how the #Chiefs feel about the chances of their injured players returning for the Super Bowl: "The Chiefs feel like everybody's got a chance, all those guys." Adds that it's doubtful that all of them would make it, but all should have a shot.

Nah i don't think so. He's had quite a few clutch plays for us when it mattered.


That catch in the back of the endzone of the Saints game. As clutch as you can get.

104 yard kick off return good bye

Big kick return to set up our comeback from being down 24-0 at end of first quarter against the Tits.

A bunch of jet sweeps for first downs & touchdowns

Clutch plays to help us beat the Bills after he was down on the bench after muffing a punt against the Bills and Mahomes told him he was going make a play and he did.



I would have liked to see more of these plays but the Defenses drop 8 in coverage and took away our deep ball.

I hope the kid comes back because we will have a run game and teams will have to make a decision to stop the run or stop the deep ball.

I think he was fun to watch. I think we could have done a better job utilizing his skills but he did have a craft at the jet sweeps. When he was in the line up our offense was cruising even if he wasn't targeted as much but when he was out it was like driving on a flat tire. Teams had to respect his speed and account for him.



He's not a number 1 receiver but he is a great compliment to the offense.


divisional round last year jet sweep

That’s pretty awesome. Juju also came into the massage parlor that my wife works at. My wife told me that she got to help him drain his fluid.

I said, “wow! His knee must feel great?”

She replied “Knee?”

yeah we do

lol jk

actually we are members of hyvee aisle and it's kind of more pain than it's worth. i've tried instacart too but it's almost easier just going there, getting what you want. i make sure i go when it isn't busy though.

It’s not expensive to have groceries delivered so wealth level is not really in play. Questioning why famous or publicly recognizable people don’t have groceries delivered is more of a scenario to ponder. I would guess that JuJu either doesn’t mind interacting with folks in public or at least not enough to forgo the convenience of a quick stop at the store on the way home, or would rather several people see him in public vs one person having his address and knowing where he lives.

You're so full of shit. I bet you can't find more than one post saying that he's the best WR on the team or that he's getting $20+ mil/yr.

I'd happily give him an MVS deal. That's if he will actually ever completely heal from this mysterious injury.

I'd bet most guys don't mind the public interaction. Also there aren't a ton of really recognizable faces in the NFL. I'd have a hard time identifying a lot of players out in public.

I wouldn’t recognize a lot of the players if I saw them out in public. You get so used to seeing them with a helmet on you forget or don’t even know what they look like.

There were at least 3 who somehow think Hardman is better than Juju

Perhaps not but, DUIs, if not necessarily “expensive” to these wealthy people, can be costly in other ways. And yet, how many times do they drive themselves after drinking all night?

Those with wealth, if not eccentric by nature, tend to become so, or at least establish tendencies to do eccentric things.

Agree, you don't miss this game unless it's broken. Bad...

Ok, but I think he was asking you to go ahead and post those. You know, to back up your claim..??
