LOOK: Chiefs newcomer scores impressive touchdown at training camp

Check out this video of #Chiefs QB Carson Wentz hitting WR Cornell Powell for a touchdown during Kansas City’s practice session on Friday.

The Kansas City Chiefs signed quarterback Carson Wentz during the 2024 offseason to fill the second-string spot on their depth chart behind reigning Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes.

Though the team will hope that Wentz isn’t forced into action during the regular season, the former first-round pick has put together impressive performances during training camp and seems to be in great form ahead of the Chiefs’ first exhibition game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

During workouts on Friday, Wentz hit receiver Cornell Powell with a perfectly placed pass in the back of the endzone that scored a touchdown against Kansas City’s defense:

If Wentz can translate his practice performances into exceptional showings in the preseason, Chiefs fans might start to feel more at ease with the veteran backup ahead of the team’s Super Bowl defense campaign.

Expect to see Wentz fight for the right to be Mahomes’ backup throughout Kansas City’s three-game preseason schedule.
