On the surface, it just looks like the the players are out there having fun.

But there’s another reason the Chiefs put this position group through a Pat-and-Go drill.

Chiefs say WR Jalen Royals (knee) will not practice today.

Teams adds everyone else, which includes WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder), is expected to get in work.

We’ll have to wait to see how much Worthy actually does when the injury reports comes out later today.

To quote a line from Rogue One: “Rebellions are built on hope.”

From comparisons to a 4x1 track team to a warning of “warm up your hammies,” this year’s version of the Chiefs WR group brings hope of the deep ball returning.

It starts with a key factor - speed.

Lots of it.

Here’s why Chiefs are primed to unleash a ‘track team’ against defenses in 2025

Optimism is high for the deep ball to make a consistent return to the offense

Caught up with Chiefs rookie LB Cooper McDonald in the locker room today.

McDonald, who made the initial 53-player roster, shared with me that the Chiefs were the only team in the entire league to invite him to a rookie minicamp tryout.

He definitely made the most of the opportunity.
