Clemson WR Justyn Ross is signing with the #Chiefs to their 90-man roster, per source.
Ross led the ACC in receiving as a freshman in 2018, ranked fifth nationally with 21.7 YPC and was second in receiving touchdowns. He also stands 6-3, 210 pounds. High quality addition for
What if Justyn Ross is healthy, runs good routes, and becomes a legit sideline possession receiving option?
And if Rashee Rice has a Maclin-esque rookie season under Reid (56rec 773yds 4tds).
And if Skyy Moore and Kadarius Toney pick up right where they left off in the SB.
Can you imagine how dominant our offense would be if 3 of those 4 things happen? We'd be in incredibly good shape if even 2 of them happen.
Third-year NFL breakout candidates for 2023: Khalil Herbert, Kadarius Toney and more
WR KADARIUS TONEY, KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
Toney saw 25 targets from just 85 snaps as a receiver last season after his midseason trade from the New York Giants, and he has a realistic shot at being Patrick Mahomes’ WR1 now that JuJu Smith-Schuster is no longer in town. Toney has averaged 2.14 yards per route run through his first two seasons in the league and has forced 19 missed tackles from just 62 receptions.

Interesting that he has Drake London on there. Because Drake London "lacks speed" and "cannot get separation" and that made me be down on him and he just went ahead and defied all preconceived notions and got 72 catches for nearly 900 yards anyway.
Sometimes guys are just *waves hands generally* good at being a receiver. [Reply]

London ran a little faster than Ross when they worked out 4.5 to 4.6.
What sets those guys apart though is London plays with a high level of strength for a WR, he's a lot more physical than Ross has ever shown.
There is a place for 6'4 WR's that don't have elite long speed, just London has shown a lot more of the smooth short area quickness and just being reliable and knowing where to be than we've really ever seen from Ross. Like Drake London is a really good high point the ball receiver..Ross dunno.
The difference in a top 10 pick and a UDFA aside from serious injury is London has shown he can do those things Ross you're hoping he can. [Reply]
Ross is apparently going to be this year’s Pacheco. The guy whose (mild) hype is mocked throughout OTC and training camp, until it proves to be legitimate. [Reply]
