onejayhawk Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 Odds and Ends. Even without Clark and Nnadi, the DL looks stout.https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/8/17/22629212/chiefs-training-camp-notebook-brendan-dalys-defensive-line-is-shining-at-21-camp DLC Daly raves about the new look DL.https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2021/08/18/kansas-city-chiefs-brendan-daly-defensive-line-chris-jones-jarran-reed/ Orlando Brown talks about playing LT in a pass first offense. It's important to remember that OBJr is on the last year of his rookie contract. I can't tell if this will be a one year run or if they will find a way to extend him. https://www.espn.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/317254/chiefs-orlando-brown-wants-to-shed-stigma-that-he-cant-play-left-tackle-in-a-pass-first-offense GM Veach talks about Tyrann Mathieu and the chances of re-signing him. Mathieu seems to want Jamal Adams money, while Adams is six years younger.https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2021/08/18/kansas-city-chiefs-brett-veach-tyrann-mathieu-update-on-contract-talks/ Reid on the offense.https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2021/08/18/kansas-city-chiefs-andy-reid-offensive-line-patrick-mahomes-playing-time-preseason-week-1/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Last day of camp at St Jo. More from Reid including an update on Kyle Long, using the word surgery.https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/8/18/22630601/clark-nnadi-miss-final-st-joseph-practice-reid-talks-kyle-long-injury Quick takes. Mahomes and Hill in synch, Depth players getting 1st team snaps, Hughes does a Tillman peanut punch.https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/lists/kansas-city-chiefs-training-camp-takeaways-day-15/ Toub on ST. It's worth noting that the PR and KR in the depth chart bear no resemblance to the ones in the first game. notably, CB Mike Hughes returned kicks with success. https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/8/18/22630601/clark-nnadi-miss-final-st-joseph-practice-reid-talks-kyle-long-injury More on DF with Frank Clark sidelined. https://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/frank_clarks_hamstring_injury_opens_door_for_rest_of_chiefs_defensive_ends/s1_16631_35648738 Edited August 18, 2021 by onejayhawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted August 19, 2021 Author Share Posted August 19, 2021 This is a quick hits wrap--mostly injury free, OL gelled faster than expected, Mahomes is Mahomes, RB is loaded, defensive depth MUCH better, no one can claim to be Sammy's replacement, but there are several good candidates. It appears to have been an outstanding camp by a team with a mission. https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/lists/kansas-city-chiefs-post-training-camp-takeaways/ Notes and Quotes. Chris Jones is looking thin and loving the change.https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/8/18/22630769/chiefs-training-camp-notebook-chris-jones-gives-update-on-defensive-end-transition Niang is settling in at RT.
