Today's KC Chiefs news...

Chiefs rookie receiver Tyreek Hill as a football player? Pretty dang good so far  | The Kansas City Star

Hill is the most obvious player on the field. If you watched a Chiefs practice and didn't know anything about his past, or even about his ability, at some point you would turn to the person next to you and say something like, "Who the crap is that No. 81?"

Smith failed to lead the starting offense to a touchdown under identical circumstances as Bray: one minute remaining, ball on the defense’s 30-yard line.

"It’s been really good," said the third-year receiver out of Temple. "I’ve fit right into the offense and just try and go out there and make plays when I can." Streater has been working at the outside receiver spots, while getting numerous snaps working as the offense’s slot receiver. "Lining up on the slot, I feel like I can beat nickels." Streater said. "It’s a mismatch. I’m 6-3 and guys probably won’t think I can get open. I can fight inside or anywhere coach wants to put me; that’s where I’m going to make plays."
