The Kansas City Chiefs had a lot of things go wrong in 2025.
One of the problems? Their wide receivers, even the ones who were supposed to be good, were bad. That's not ideal for helping Patrick Mahomes be the best at his job at the quarterback position.
"The performance of the Chiefs' wide receivers, according to ESPN's receiver scores last season, were significantly bad," ESPN's Aaron Schatz wrote in a new article on Thursday as he noted that the Chiefs' biggest remaining need is to find a wideout. "Rashee Rice is generally believed to be one of the league's top slot receivers, but he scored just a 49 out of 100 in an off season. Tyquan Thornton had a 36 and Xaiver Worthy just a 25."
