Darwin is not making the team. Showing up with Covid was the last dumb thing he will do wearing Chief's red.
Your comment was on point though- if McKinnon can't stay off IR at least until he secures a spot, the Chiefs will just move on. Low risk and possible nice return- IF...

Well done Bleet Varnch!!
Whenever he's been healthy - which granted hasn't been often enough - he's looked good. [Reply]
I always wondered why they never used him with the speed he has. Glad to see him out there. He's a home run threat and can gain yards very quickly. [Reply]

I don't think Gore holds up well in pass pro...at least with McKinnon you can slow guys down with his ability to be used as a receiver out of the back field.
I imagine that's the difference, especially with a team that has a pass rush like the Steelers. [Reply]
Like I said, it made no sense to not use him during the season. He's a difference maker in a way CEH could never be. Happy as hell he's finally getting his shot cause he's a perfect fit for us. [Reply]
