First preseason game vs 49ers tonite
Aug 14, 2021 03:06 PM #1

Lucky people in Chiefs viewing area get to watch, but not on nationally.

However, it will be rebroadcast on NFL Network at 1:00 a.m. Eastern time.

Since it is the first preseason game since 2019, don't forget that the results don't matter. This is more of a tentative showcase testing players' timing and for coaches to see who gets to survive the first cuts. Reportedly, KC may play first string OL and Mahomes together for a full quarter (longer than most teams) because 3 of them have never even taken an NFL snap and the other 2 are new to Reid's schemes. (Don't be surprised to see Mahomes often giving himself up in the backfield rather than scrambling if a block is missed!)

All 4 QBs played. It will be a tough battle for the 3rd spot between Gordon and Sam.

TE is another position which is shaping out to be interesting. Forton has bulked up and looking good and Chiefs are high on rookie Gray. It is possible that Blake Ball gets cut after he was resigned in the offseason.

Will Chiefs keep 3 RBs or 4? If 4, Darwin T may be out.

Perhaps Veatch can find a trade partner instead of releasing him.

Another roster battle is on DE between Tim Ward and Okafor.

Ward had a nice game. If Okafor does not step up, Chiefs may release or put him on IR.

Feels so good. Special kudos to Chiefs Special Team, they had three game changing plays.
