Elite name alert: Chiefs to sign talented TE Geor’Quarius Spivey

According to a report, Kansas City #Chiefs signed tight end Geor’Quarius Spivey on Thursday.

According to a report from Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 in Houston, Texas the Kansas City Chiefs signed tight end Geor’Quarius Spivey on Thursday after he worked out with the team earlier in the offseason.

Spivey, a product of Mississippi State and TCU, will add to Kansas City’s depth behind Travis Kelce in a group of tight ends that already includes Noah Gray, Irv Smith Jr., and rookie Jared Wiley.

Though he had a productive career as a collegian, Spivey didn’t appear in any games for the Bulldogs last season after the NCAA denied him a transfer waiver following the Horned Frogs’ 2022 campaign.

It is unclear if Spivey will be able to push Gray, Smith, or Wiley for a second or third-string spot on Kansas City’s depth chart but, with some luck, the six-foot-five tight end could catch on with the Chiefs’ practice squad with an outstanding performance in the preseason.

Giants hosting Tre Herndon, others for tryouts

The New York Giants are hosting multiple players for tryouts including veteran cornerback Tre Herndon III.

With news of the recent retirement of starting tight end Darren Waller, the New York Giants are trying out several veterans at minicamp this week along with several other veterans at other positions.

Head coach Brian Daboll said the team is always trying to improve the roster and have the luxury of some additional cap space with Waller off the roster.

The Giants already have a full tight end room but there is always room for more. Noah Togiai, who was an undrafted free agent out of Oregon State back in 2017, has played in eight NFL games. Former Mississippi State Bulldog Geor’quarius Spivey is also getting a tryout.

Tre Herndon III, a cornerback with 83 games of experience (34 starts) for the Jacksonville Jaguars, will also get a tryout as will 6-foot-7 offensive tackle Kellen Diesch.

In addition to those tryouts, UFL running back Jacob Saylors is in East Rutherford for a visit.
