NFL News: Andy Reid finally makes long-awaited move to give Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs another weapon
The Kansas City Chiefs‘ 3-0 start to the 2024 NFL season isn’t enough for Andy Reid to pretend like everything is okay. The head coach believes Patrick Mahomes and company can still do better, which is why the roster moves aren’t stopping.
Not only did Reid confirm a mejor decision on the Chiefs’ starting lineup by claiming Wanya Morris will continue at left tackle, but the head coach is also making changes in the running back room.
On Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reported the Chiefs signed Kareem Hunt to their 53-man roster and waived Keaontay Ingram. Hunt’s promotion was highly anticipated by fans since the player returned to Kansas City last week.
Hunt, 29, initially joined the Chiefs’ practice squad but Reid immediately suggested he’d count on the running back soon. It didn’t take long, and now Mahomes is set to have a new weapon for Week 4.
On Sunday, the 3-0 Chiefs will travel to Los Angeles to play divisional rivals Chargers, who are 2-1 through the first three weeks of the 2024 NFL season. Will Mahomes and Hunt quickly rediscover their old connection?
