Some fun here. Edwards-Helaire rushed for 1,415 yards and 16 touchdowns as a junior .. all-purpose yards -- receiving (55 receptions, 453 yards) and kick returner (KEY) 10 returns, 214 yards pic.twitter.com/3Duq1jjy6J
Holy offense Bat Man. I love Clyde Edwards-Helaire. He is best Rb in the draft. Watkins and Hill deep. Kelce in the middle. And Edwards-Helaire underneath. Good Luck defenses.
Brett Veach told Andy Reid to watch some Clyde Edwards-Helaire film and told Reid you’ll see Brian Westbrook. Reid watched. Then got back to Veach and said he’s better than Westbrook.

But needless to say, we’re excited to have him back in the building today and look forward to hopefully a healthy 2023 campaign for him.”
Coach's speak, bro.
There's no possible way they see anything in their former 1st round selection that would get them excited about a healthy season. [Reply]

I don't hate CEH like others (although I don't want him taking a spot from someone else anymore), but I bet he is at the ring ceremony and takes his ring despite contributing nothing to a SB run. And he should as he was part of the team and I think he should have celebrated with his teammates and the fans.
To celebrate with the team and fans, he would have had to break an existing contract.
So you want him to honor one but not the other? Surely you can see the flaw in that thinking. [Reply]

It makes far more sense for the company for Clyde to turn up to the parade wearing the shitty clothes he's promoting than attend some show no one knows or cares about.

Dude, I never said they think he's a bum. Far from it, in fact.
I'm sure they're wanting him to contribute but since they declined his 5th-year option that they're much more concerned with him just keeping a roster spot at this point. [Reply]

Not at all. I am just saying that the better choice would have been to not put himself in that position in the first place. I get that he was on the IR, and had KC not been playing in the SB, then him making that fashion show would have made sense. Now scheduling it when KC has at worst a 50% chance of winning and knowing a parade would follow speaks poorly for him. Sure he didn't play, but there were others on the roster who didn't either and yet they were probably at the parade. This whole thing is a bad look for CEH and screams pettiness. [Reply]

Do they schedule fashion shows on a 2 weeks notice? [Reply]

Don't know. Regardless though to contractually obligate oneself to it knowing the schedule (as SB Sunday would have been before the season started) and the possibility of playing in and winning the SB is poor thinking. [Reply]

So regardless of when he committed to actually participating in a fashion show, he should have taken into account the possibility that in the future the Chiefs could possibly win the SB and the parade could possibly be scheduled for the very day he was obligated to appear?
Grow the fuck up.
No one inside the organization seems to give a flying fuck about him missing the parade. [Reply]

Yes.
Grow up how? I lost and continue to lose no sleep over his appearance or not. I was commenting to someone else about what the wiser decision was. Amazing how many players had their calendars open for that parade except CEH.
Also glad you have the inside scoop on how the organization felt about it. Please share more of your in depth coverage over the inner workings of the front office. [Reply]

Well there hasn't been a single comment from anyone about him not being there, either for or against. You can take it for what you want, but to me that means no one really gives a shit. The only people who do are Karens on the internet. [Reply]

Exactly. All the team has said publicly is that they're ready to get him back and participate in camp. They don't give a shit about where he was during the Super Bowl parade. [Reply]
Clyde is nice depth to have, certainly not worthy of his draft status but that's really not his fault. As the #3 back he's just fine. We have a crew that can all contribute and I'm sure we'll need him at some point this season. [Reply]
