NFL News: Underrated Chiefs weapon praised by Patrick Mahomes makes something clear to Andy Reid…

After leading the Kansas City Chiefs to back-to-back Super Bowl wins in the last two years, Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid are upping the ante for the 2024 NFL season by setting their sights on an unprecedented three-peat.

Fortunately, the quarterback and head coach are not alone on this mission. The Chiefs‘ front office stayed busy in the offseason making important moves to keep a competitive team at Arrowhead, but not only by making notable additions.

Kansas City understands the importance of depth to succeed, which is why general manager Brett Veach also made sure to pay some players who might go under the radar. One of them was tight end Noah Gray, whom Mahomes and Reid seem to believe is underrated outside Arrowhead.

 Gray said Friday about his contract extension with the Chiefs. “I’m extremely grateful; I can’t thank God enough, I can’t thank Clark Hunt and the Hunt family enough, this organization, front office, coaches, teammates, just really everybody I’ve been fortunate enough to be in contact with these past three years (and) play with.”

And the 25-year-old made it clear to Reid and all the Chiefs coaches he’s willing to do whatever they ask from him: “I mean, I’m just out here having fun with my boys; whatever my coaches need me to do, I’m willing to do it. I give huge credit to Coach (Dave) Toub over the past three years, putting me in positions to be successful, Coach Tom (Melvin), and all the other coaches we have. Whatever they need me to do is what I do, and I have a ton of fun doing it.”
