The hype train’s chuggin’, but we’re tapping the brakes on a few KC Chiefs: new podcast
The Chiefs’ time at Missouri Western ended Thursday, and overall, it’s been another productive edition of training camp. Patrick Mahomes is getting more comfortable with his new targets, players from the team’s 2022 draft class have taken big strides and the defense appears more athletic and quicker.
It’s difficult to say who’s had the best camp. But on today’s SportsBeat KC podcast, beat writers Herbie Teope and Jesse Newell — along with columnist Sam McDowell — offer their assessments about which players have been the most over-hyped. It’s not to say these players had a bad camp, but perhaps we’ve gone a little overboard on them.
Also, we discuss kicker Harrison Butker, who has tweaked his kicking style in hopes of attaining greater distance on field goals.
