On Wednesday morning, the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs returned to their discipline at Missouri Western State College in St. Joseph for an additional apply of the workforce’s 2024 coaching camp.
This was the fifteenth of 19 public classes on the apply discipline subsequent to MWSU’s Spratt Stadium. All 4 of the remaining practices can be open to the general public — click on right here for particulars and a full schedule.
Arrowhead Pleasure editor-in-chief Pete Sweeney was there. He posted some observations on social media — beginning with one other unseasonably cool (and welcome) day.
It was slightly hotter in St. Joe on Wednesday, however nonetheless snug for the gamers. The temperature was within the low 70s as apply started and stayed that method by way of the exercise.

One participant was again, one participant was out and one other left early.
The one modifications from Tuesday when it comes to participation have been RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (sickness) again on the sphere and WR Kadarius Toney (again) not.
LB Swayze Bozeman (knee), who Dave Toub has been excessive on, left early. OL Wanya Morris (knee) had a short damage scare however was OK.

As normal, the protection didn’t simply lay down for the offense.
CB Joshua Williams broke up the primary go of the day by Patrick Mahomes (meant for WR Rashee Rice) throughout 11-on-11. QB Carson Wentz and WR Justyn Ross bought Williams a few classes later when Wentz hit Ross’ again shoulder in stride inside the again left pylon for a TD.

Xavier Worthy has been showin’ us sumpin’!
I’ve favored what Andy Reid has been drawing up for Xavier Worthy when it comes to jet motion. You do not essentially want a velocity again with this forged of large receivers. Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce apart, Mahomes’ reference to Worthy has been the strongest, in my opinion.
— Pete Sweeney (@pgsween) August 7, 2024
Mahomes on Worthy: “He does a terrific job. He is quick, however it’s virtually like he can run quick, however he can run with tempo, quick. He is in a position to monitor the ball very well, he runs a number of nice routes, and he will get as bodily as any camp right here. He is doing a terrific job, attempting to…

The rookie tight finish made a spotlight play.
I counted two touchdowns from Mahomes within the long-drive 11-on-11 interval: One to TE Jared Wiley on a play-action look — and one other on a Reid particular… a shovel go inside from Mahomes to RB Isiah Pacheco.

Each Mecole Hardman and Skyy Moore had highlights with Carson Wentz.
Throughout his turns for 11-on-11 work, Wentz additionally discovered WR Mecole Hardman for a deep landing and later linked with WR Skyy Moore for a rating.
— Pete Sweeney (@pgsween) August 7, 2024
As talked about in a earlier submit, I actually thought Hardman was cooking on this look. Gathering my notes collectively, I counted six catches on seven targets, with Hardman monitoring down every part thrown in his neighborhood. Ideally suited for him for this to hold into preseason starting Sat.

The previous first-round cornerback continues to dwell as much as his billing.
Throughout 7-on-7 work, CB Trent McDuffie intercepted Mahomes on a go meant for Moore. This play was posted by @Chiefs on Wednesday, however a superb take a look at a lot of what we’ve got seen from McD all camp: https://t.co/CerEgTfMs6

With Jaylen Watson again, the rotation is starting to settle in.
The CB rotation mimicked what we noticed on Wednesday, with Williams and Jaylen Watson outdoors, McDuffie inside. Williams got here off at occasions with McDuffie kicking outdoors and Chamarri Conner working slot. It is honest to say Watson remains to be shaking off some rust, however he simply got here again.
— Pete Sweeney (@pgsween) August 7, 2024
In the meantime, the offensive line appears set.
The OL rotation has been static, with rookie Kingsley Suamataia persevering with to work left deal with. Mike Caliendo labored at left guard Wednesday, with Joe Thuney nonetheless working again. Thuney is not going to play Saturday, and I might anticipate Caliendo.
Morris stays the second-team left deal with.

The boys within the trenches battled — and typically needed to be despatched to their corners.
OL vs. DL interval standouts
OL: Creed Humphrey, McKade Mettauer, Trey Smith, Kingsley SuamataiaDL: George Karlaftis, Malik Herring, Fabien Lovett

The Chiefs’ linemen are able to see one other jersey, too, with Herring and Chu Godrick needing to be separated after a rep.

If Louis Rees-Zammit makes the workforce, it doesn’t seem like it’s going to be due to what he does on offense.

And that’s it from Buchanan County earlier than Saturday’s recreation in Duval County.
Kansas Metropolis closes down St. Joe for the week, as they now put together for Jacksonville. Reid stated that every quarterback would get 1 / 4, however my guess is it is really one thing like this: https://t.co/L3SLJkAXCP
