The Chiefs won the AFC West and advanced to the AFC title game last year thanks in large part to the most prolific offense in the league Chad Henne Jersey , but their defense didn’t hit the same highs and the team used January’s overtime loss to the Patriots as a precursor for big changes to the unit.Steve Spagnuolo is now the coordinator and they brought in players like safety Tyrann Mathieu, defensive end Frank Clark, cornerback Bashaud Breeland, defensive end Alex Okafor, linebacker Darron Lee and defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah to help craft a new look on that side of the ball.Mathieu said during an appearance on FS1 last week that he thinks the result will be a better unit, although he acknowledged that there’s a lot of work to do to make good on that prediction.“I think we’ve got a great challenge ahead Kendall Fuller Jersey ,” Mathieu said, via the . “I told our group, ‘This is going to be a tough hill to climb, especially where those guys were last year.’ They brought myself and Frank Clark in, and I think anytime you can bring two guys in that really have a chip on their shoulders, an edge Eric Murray Jersey , a certain personality, you can rub off on a lot of guys in a positive way. I think that’s why they brought me in, Kansas City, for one was to really kind of raise the tide of everybody around me, and so it’s going to be a fun season.”Mathieu said he’s not used to being a “little brother” to his team’s offense, but that’s certainly what the defense is in Kansas City these days. If the age gap is a little closer than it was last year Terrance Smith Jersey , the fun season that Mathieu is looking for will be likelier to unfold come the fall.

The Chiefs traded Smith to the Redskins last offseason.Smith, 34 Xavier Williams Jersey , suffered a compound fracture back in mid-November and was last spotted in late January at a Washington Wizards game.The former 2005 first-overall pick played for the Chiefs from 2013-17, leading them to the playoffs four of his five seasons as starter. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid often credits Smith for his mentorship of Patrick Mahomes, who won the league’s Most Valuable Player Award in his first season at the helm.Fortunately, Smith’s deal with the Redskins provides him financial security for the rest of his life, but knowing what I know about the player, I doubt we’ve seen the last of him.Here’s to hoping I’m right.
