  Chiefs Camp — Sep 3: Harris Cut and Back in Two Days

  Kansas City spent the ninth waiver priority on two defensive front players — edge rusher Jack Pyburn and defensive tackle Bryson Eason — and paid with two men off its own fifty-three; one of them, Marcus Harris, cleared waivers and was back on the practice squad by Wednesday. The Associated Press reported Wednesday that Patrick Mahomes appears on track to start against Denver, with no contact clearance announced and Andy Reid saying he will keep practicing as he has. The counterweight: left tackle Josh Simmons has not practiced since the last week of camp and a specialist's look at his back was not conclusive.

  Chiefs Camp — Aug 31: Mahomes Practicing Fully, Not Yet Cleared for Week 1

  The Chiefs cut to 53 with the only question that matters still open: Patrick Mahomes is practicing fully approaching the nine-month mark of his knee rehab but has no clearance for game contact, and Justin Fields starts against Denver if that doesn't change. Around the quarterback, the front office traded for two offensive linemen in a week, kept a three-man backfield with rookie Emmett Johnson in it, and waived a receiver coming off what one beat writer called a killer preseason.

  Chiefs Camp — Aug 23: Butker Hits From 69, Then Gives It Back

  Harrison Butker hit a 69-yard field goal on the last play of the first half in Tampa, then missed a 43-yarder and an extra point in a 16-15 loss played almost entirely by reserves. Rookie Emmett Johnson scored again, Garrett Nussmeier ran the touchdown drive, and first-round corner Mansoor Delane made his debut — while Eric Bieniemy returned to the building and camp closed with the starting receivers still waiting on their first preseason snap.

  Kansas City Chiefs Camp Update — August 16: Worthy and Rice Are Back With Mahomes

  The receiver room that spent last week sitting out padded practices spent this week catching passes from Mahomes. Xavier Worthy returned early in the week, Rashee Rice looked fully integrated Thursday, and the Bieniemy absence turned out to be a family tragedy, not a football mystery. The preseason loss to the Rams involved almost nobody who matters in September.

  Kansas City Chiefs Camp Update — August 9: Xavier Worthy Hasn't Practiced Since the First Padded Day

  Mahomes is on schedule — brace under the pants, mobility improving weekly, chippy-camp quotes. It's everything around him that's complicating: Worthy's shoulder has cost him the whole padded phase, Rice keeps ducking out for maintenance, and the pass-game coordinator has quietly run the offense for over a week.

  Kansas City Chiefs 2026 Season Preview — the Bounce Is Priced, the Book on Mahomes Isn't

  The 6-11 was a coin-flip season and the rebound is real — the question nobody's pricing is whether KC solved the man-coverage book on Mahomes.

  Chiefs 24, Dolphins 10 — Week 3: Passing Carries It, the Run Stalls

  Kansas City beat Miami 24-10 on the road to go 3-0, as 24 pass plays produced plus 12.9 expected points and the defense held Miami to 7 successful runs in 31, while a run game that ranked 2nd and 3rd in Weeks 1 and 2 was worth minus 6.2 on 25 rush plays.

  Chiefs 31, Broncos 10 — Week 1: Sixty Yards on Fourth and One

  Kansas City beat Denver 31-10 on Monday night at Arrowhead behind 224 rushing yards on 35 rush plays, the second-most valuable run game of any team in Week 1 by expected points, a defense that stopped ten of twelve third downs, and a fourth-and-one from its own forty that Kenneth Walker turned into a sixty-yard touchdown.

  Chiefs, Week 3 — What Repeats: Twelve for Twelve Off the Fake

  Kansas City faked a handoff on 12 of 25 dropbacks in Miami, 48 percent, the highest rate in the league this week and a third straight rise from last season's 15, and Patrick Mahomes completed all 12 play-action throws for 194 of his 246 yards; the run game's heavier boxes repeated, but the yards did not, at 3.6 per designed run after 6.4 and 5.0.

• Week 2 · What RepeatsSep 24, 2026

  Chiefs, Week 2 — What Repeats: Play-Action at Double, Again

  For a second straight week Kansas City used play-action on roughly double or more its 2025 rate (37 percent of dropbacks, 4th of 32, after 30 percent in Week 1 and 15 percent in 2025), threw screens on 18 percent (2nd of 32; 9 percent in 2025), and its designed runs again met fewer light boxes than last season and still went for 5.0 yards each.

• Week 1 · What RepeatsSep 16, 2026

  Chiefs, Week 1 — What Repeats: Heavy Boxes Didn't Stop the Run

  The charting says Kansas City's designed runs met seven or more in the box on 19 of 31 and still went for 197 yards — after a light box on 68% of designed runs across 2025, it was 39% on Monday. Play-action doubled to 30% of dropbacks, and Patrick Mahomes' catchable rate was 63% (25th of 32) against the third-highest five-or-more rusher rate of the week.
