The Kansas City Chiefs’ rivals aren’t happy that three-time Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes will be throwing to the fastest receiver in NFL combine history next season.
“F–k me,” an AFC general manager texted NFL insider Jordan Schultz after the Chiefs traded up for Xavier Worthy with the No. 28 pick in the draft.
After surpassing 1,000 receiving yards during his senior season at Texas, Worthy ran the 40-yard dash in a record-breaking 4.21 seconds at the March combine.
Thanks to a draft-night trade with the Buffalo Bills, Mahomes will now throw to him as well as Marquise Brown and Travis Kelce this fall.
Mahomes has led the Chiefs on their current run of three Super Bowls in five seasons despite recent uncertainty surrounding the team’s wide receiver group.
Kadarius Toney began the 2023 season as a potential WR1 and ended it on the bench. Kansas City finished the season with Kelce, a tight end, leading the team in receiving yards.
It won its second straight Super Bowl anyway.
Now that Mahomes has two new targets in Worthy and Brown, who topped 1,000 receiving yards during his 2021 season with the Baltimore Ravens, the Chiefs could become even more of a threat to the AFC.
This is not the first time the Bills have been responsible for a draft-day trade that allowed Kansas City to improve its offensive firepower within Buffalo’s own conference.
The Chiefs’ current championship run started during the 2017 draft, when the Bills dealt the No. 10 pick to them and moved down in exchange for a first-rounder the following year.
Kansas City ended up using that No. 10 pick to select Mahomes, while the Bills traded up in 2018 to draft Josh Allen.
This year, the Bills traded down twice. Brandon Beane followed the Chiefs trade with an exchange with the Carolina Panthers that saw Buffalo drop out of the first round entirely.
The Bills are stockpiling in the lower rounds and will select 10 times in Rounds 2 through 7. Buffalo will be the first team to draft when the second round begins Friday at 7 p.m. ET.
