WATCH: Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes throws to Marquise Brown in offseason workout

Check out this video of #Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes throwing to Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown in an offseason workout

The 2024 NFL season is months away, but Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes didn’t want to wait much longer to test his arm with his new wide receiver. The three-time Super Bowl MVP was back on the field showing off his arm in a video with his newly signed teammate Marquise “Hollywood” Brown.

Mahomes posted a video of him tossing passes to Brown on his Instagram account and a highlight reel of a suspected independent workout. The video was accompanied by the Big Sean song Precision, and it appeared that the new teammates were already in sync.

The pair was spotted working out with trainer Bobby Stroupe last month, so a positive bond seems to have formed well before organized team activities.

Skyy Moore is also featured in the video. After a rough 2023, he hopes to significantly contribute to the team’s offensive plans in the upcoming season.

The Chiefs could still be in the market for a wide receiver during this month’s NFL Draft, but it’s good to see the current crop getting some early work under their belts.

Rashee Rice’s lawyer issues statement after serious wreck in Dallas

Rashee Rice’s lawyer issued a statement on Monday after he was allegedly involved in a serious accident in Dallas, Texas over the weekend.

A high-speed car accident in Dallas was a topic of serious discussion around the NFL this weekend after Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was connected with the incident. The Dallas Morning News on Sunday morning reported that a vehicle registered to him was involved in the crash.

In response, Rice has hired attorney Royce West, who released a statement on the matter Monday afternoon, just a day after the incident.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter shared the statement on his X account.

Since yesterday, there haven’t been any concrete details to report amid the many assumptions swirling on social media. Whether Rice himself was involved in the incident is still unclear. For now, the statement posted by Schefter serves as the only acknowledgment of the incident by the wide receiver.

As details become available, this story will be updated.

Police seeking Chiefs WR Rashee Rice after auto accident in Dallas

Dallas police are seeking Chiefs WR Rashee Rice after a multi-vehicle accident

Authorities in Dallas are searching for Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice regarding an auto accident on Saturday in Dallas.

Reports indicate Dallas police say cars were racing when they crashed, causing a multi-vehicle accident.

Police believe Rice was driving the Corvette, which is alleged to have been racing a Lamborghini.

Per WFAA:

Police said that their preliminary investigation determined that two vehicles — a Chevrolet Corvette and a Lamborghini — were speeding in the far left lane of Central Expressway when the drivers lost controls of their vehicles. Per their investigation, police said the Lamborghini swerved onto the highway’s shoulder and hit the center-median wall divider, causing a chain reaction that involved four more vehicles in the collision, bringing the total number of cars involved to six.

Police said the occupants of the Lamborghini and Corvette ran from the scene before police arrived, without offering insurance information or checking to see if any of the other victims were in need of medical assistance.

Rashee Rice sought by Dallas police after major accident

#Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is reportedly being sought by police in Dallas after a serious automobile accident.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ offseason took a strange turn when reports of Rashee Rice’s potential involvement in a serious automobile accident in Dallas surfaced early on Sunday morning.

It is unclear whether Rice was at the wheel when the accident occurred, but a vehicle registered to him was involved in a crash, according to the Dallas Morning News.

Police in Dallas were searching for Rice, the newspaper reported, though his connection to the accident remains murky.

Rice was selected by the Chiefs in the second round of the 2023 NFL draft and found a significant role in Kansas City’s offense by the end of last season.

A Dallas native, Rice played his college ball at Southern Methodist and became one of Patrick Mahomes’ favorite targets after attending the then-reigning MVP’s throwing sessions in the Lone Star State last offseason.

Andy Reid is confident WR Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown’s speed will benefit Chiefs’ offense

#Chiefs head coach Andy Reid expressed his confidence that Marquise “Hollywood” Brown’s speed will benefit Kansas City’s offense

The Kansas City Chiefs are focused on improving their quality of play at the wide receiver position heading into the 2024 season. Marquise Hollywood Brown’s signing at the start of free agency is a significant step towards fixing some issues plaguing the group last season.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is in Florida for the NFL’s annual meetings this week. According to CBS Sports’ Jeff Kerr, he discussed Brown’s signing and its potential impact on the offense.

“I think Marquise gives you that speed element on the outside, or inside, for that matter,” Reid explained. “He’s played all the different spots. I think he’s a smart kid. He’ll complement with Rashee [Rice] and Trav [Travis Kelce] well.”

In 2023, the Chiefs’ receivers suffered from too many drops and unforced errors, leading many to criticize the personnel choices. In his rookie season, Rice emerged as a budding star in the offense, and Brown could be the proven veteran needed alongside him in the receivers room.

“I gotta see how he does. I think his main thing is just staying healthy. It’s been an issue up to this point,” said Reid. “He looks like he’s in great shape. He’s in a good frame of mind.”

Brown has a reputation for making big plays and has the personality to fit in with the many characters in the Chiefs locker room. Coaches, players, and fans have good reason to be excited about their chances at a three-peat.

Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes, Rashee Rice honored at ‘101 Awards’

#Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Rashee Rice were honored at the ‘101 Awards’ over the weekend.

The Kansas City Chiefs offensive duo of Patrick Mahomes and Rashee Rice accepted their team awards at this year’s 101 Awards.

Traditionally held in Kansas City, “The Committee of 101” hosts the 101 Awards, the city’s salute to professional football. The nationally-renowned event was begun in 1969 by a group headed by Kansas City businessman Jack O. Wheeler to honor outstanding achievements in professional football.

“To be nominated by your teammates, that’s the true reward,” said Mahomes after accepting the Derrick Thomas Award for team MVP. “We have so many great players on our team, and we’re part of a great run here. So I never take it for granted to be able to stand on a stage like this or be in the locker room that I’m in.”

The 101 Awards are widely recognized throughout the NFL, from the coaches and players honored yearly to team owners and league executives who lead the league’s business affairs. Each year, 101 national media members representing both NFL conferences select winners for various awards.

Rice, who took home the team award for Rookie of the Year, was also in attendance. For the young receiver, this is a significant first step to even more greatness in the future.

Chiefs Patrick Mahomes, Rashee Rice train with new teammate Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown

#Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Rashee Rice trained with their new teammate Marquise “Hollywood” Brown this week.

The journey to three Super Bowl titles in a row is underway for some members of the Kansas City Chiefs. The offseason workouts not sanctioned by the team are early indicators of the players’ camaraderie and trust before heading into organized team activity.

Well-known trainer Bobby Stroupe has notably worked with Chiefs players such as Patrick Mahomes, George Karlaftis, and his various athlete clients. He posted images from workouts featuring Mahomes, Rashee Rice, and newly signed receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown on his X account early Thursday morning.

In the initial image featuring Rice and Brown, Stroupe details the importance of working on footwork to avoid serious injuries.

In recent years, Stroupe has been featured for his work with Mahomes, especially during his battles with lower leg injuries. The three-time Super Bowl MVP showed plenty of flexibility during his AFC Championship game performance against the Baltimore Ravens, due in part to the work with Stroupe.

Mahomes is still working out in the offseason, and his receivers, Rice and Brown, are joining him. The group is building the chemistry off the field needed for the 2024 season.

Chiefs tease players, throwback to pictures of funny faces at NFL combine

The Kansas City #Chiefs showed fans the funniest faces made by their players during the 40 yard dash at past combines.

The Kansas City Chiefs have been extremely successful at identifying young talent in the draft in recent seasons.

From stars like L’Jarius Sneed, Trent McDuffie, George Karlaftis, and Rashee Rice, Kansas City seems to have a knack for finding the best players available.

The Chiefs have been eyeing the available pool of players in Indianapolis, Indiana this week as they get a feel for the 2024 draft class, but the team made sure fans on social media didn’t forget some of the top combine moments from years past.

In a post to Twitter, Kansas City recapped some of the funniest faces made by its players during workouts at Lucas Oil Stadium:

 

The goofy visages of the Chiefs’ players served as a way to tease the defending Super Bowl champions as the offseason gets into full swing and kept fans engaged in the hype building in Indianapolis as Kansas City prepares for the 2024 NFL Draft.

Rashee Rice said Patrick Mahomes called his shot before the Chiefs’ Super Bowl-winning TD drive

Patrick Mahomes apparently called his shot before the game-winning Super Bowl touchdown.

Super Bowl 58 finished in dramatic fashion, as quarterback Patrick Mahomes led a game-winning drive in overtime capped by a touchdown to Mecole Hardman.

While talking with NFL Network after the victory, Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice revealed what Mahomes told the Kansas City huddle before theat Super Bowl-sealing drive: they were going to score.

It seems like an obvious message to give your team in crunch time of a Super Bowl, but Mahomes is one of the best quarterbacks ever for a reason.

He called his shot to his teammates, and he paid it off with a game-winning touchdown to Hardman right as overtime was expiring.

Rice, like all the other Chiefs players, got to experience the joys of having Mahomes as your quarterback, and he also got the inside look at how Mahomes encourages his teammates in such a pivotal moment.

Super Bowls last forever, and it’s awesome to hear that Mahomes knew how this one was going to end before it happened.

Patrick Mahomes and Rashee Rice had a heated discussion after missing a potential Super Bowl-winning TD

Patrick Mahomes completely missed this one.

Patrick Mahomes is normally as surefire as it gets at quarterback. It feels like he normally sees everything that goes down on the field.

But on the final play of regulation in Super Bowl he appeared to actually miss an opportunity for a game-winning touchdown in the final seconds.

Mahomes threw the ball to Kelce in the corner of the endzone where he was tightly covered by Fred Warner. But he appeared to have Rashee Rice breaking out wide open in the middle of the field.

This was a huge play. It was an opportunity to win the game and the Chiefs just missed it.

Rice knew it, too. He had a word with Mahomes before heading to overtime.

That’s a crucial play that could’ve completely ended the game. But the Chiefs will have to move on to OT.
