It's not a good mix to take risky players and fold when they **** up.
Do you think that Clark didn't weather any storms when the team drafted Hill?

You have a revisionist history.
Big Rape situation was a storm. Adam Gotsis being arrested for rape was a storm. Having a tape leak showing Hunt assaulting a female was a storm.
We're not going to agree on this, but drafting Tyreek who apparently did everything correctly and showed signs of atoning following the choking incident, is not a storm:
"He is following the steps laid out for his probation -- he had to undergo a domestic-abuse evaluation, an anger-management course and a year-long batterer's program as part of his sentence -- and his guilty plea will be dismissed if he avoids trouble until August 2018. (The victim also signed off on that plea agreement.)"

Right now he needs to be Jerry.
If you think about it...Chunt's last two big PR moves have blown up in his face.
#1. Over-riding Dorsey's wishes and signing Berry to the worst contract in NFL history. Which ultimately led to firing the best GM in Chiefs history.
#2. Releasing K.Hunt a day after the video broke...only to have him signed by the Browns...who get praised for a great pick-up.
Hang in there Tyreek and come back as a Chief stronger next season! Let's channel that energy to make you a wealthy man while you have the best QB in the league tossing you the rock!
We all know Hill is done in KC. Chiefs need to make sure he plays with no team in 19. After that we can't do anything. We won't tag him and won't resign him. This season though keep him from being an opponent.

I really think if they were going to let him go, they would have done so by now. I think they are going to stand by Tyreek!

I dont think any decisions have been made at this time. I think they learned from the Hunt situation and are going to let due process take its course, then make decisions.

We all dreaded Monday, and it has come and gone. With each day that passes, we grow stronger and stronger.
I'm still praying hard that Clark stays strong. He has all too often caved to the league and the media idiots, thus sinking the team and the city. But you're right, with each passing day I grow more hopeful that he'll make the best decision for us getting wins on the field, and not helping other teams.
I’ve come to terms with the fact that you absolutely cannot cut him right now.
I don’t care if he plays for KC ever again or not, but if I had to guess, Andy, Clark, and Veach all know that releasing him is far too dangerous of a proposition from a football standpoint.
I think they know that Dorsey would probably be the one to sign him and make Cleveland’s offense indefensible. Like it or not, I can respect the approach of KC if that’s their line of thinking. We’re trying to win a Super Bowl in these coming years.
