Sad News: A prominent player for the Kansas City Chiefs passed away in the hospital following a sugar-coated injury
August 26th – EDITED BOOKAll teams must have their rosters lowered to the 53-man maximum by Tuesday, August 28, at 4 p.m., in order to meet the NFL’s cutdown deadline. Teams are, nevertheless, already taking action.
As reported by Tom Pelissero of NFL.com, the Kansas City Chiefs have cut backup quarterback Ian Book after signing former New England Patriots receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster. The previous star quarterback for Notre Dame was Chris Oladokun, Carson Wentz, and Patrick Mahomes’ backup.
Book was released despite having two touchdowns in the Chicago Bears’ preseason game on Thursday, when he completed six of his nine throws for 71 yards.
AUG 26 JUJU JuJu Smith-Schuster, a former Pro Bowl wide receiver, is returning to the Kansas City Chiefs. On Monday, the team announced that he would re-sign as a free agent. Smith-Schuster was a member of the Chiefs in 2022 when he made seven catches for 53 yards during the team’s victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 57.
Prior to the 2023 season, Smith-Schuster left the Steelers and signed with the New England Patriots; however, on August 9, he was released by the latter team. For the Patrick Mahomes-led offense, the Chiefs have an unexpectedly deep receivers room; in fact, former Giants first-round pick Kadarius Toney might be cut by this week’s cutdown day. UPDATE AUG 24 The Chiefs and Bears’ preseason game on Thursday night was ruined by the terrifying sight of Bears defensive back Douglas Coleman III suffering a neck injury after a tackle and violently colliding with Chiefs receiver Cornell Powell.
