#Chiefs HC Andy Reid mentions on the WR situation that the team needs guys who can play off Travis Kelce. Mentioned Sammy Watkins, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Byron Pringle as past examples. Said that Rashee Rice grew into that last year.

No, we're not cutting Reid. He has one year left and he's earned it. [Reply]
That probably drives his price lower, actually. Jaylon Johnson is 2 years younger and has All Pro honors, and yet he didn't crack the top 5 in AAV. [Reply]

Might help his trade comp a bit if teams feel they can pay him less. [Reply]

Yeah, top of the market is $21M per year. Surprised Jaylon settled for $2M per year below that. [Reply]
