The former fifth-round draft pick comes to Kansas City after racking up over 2,000 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns in the last four seasons with Green Bay. - While Chiefs Kingdom is still dealing with the bittersweetness of saying goodbye to Tyreek Hill, some of Valdes-Scantling’s newest teammates were quite excited about the news of his arrival. The first player to react was Chiefs LB Willie Gay Jr., who spouted praise for GM Brett Veach before retweeting the news that Valdes-Scantling had signed. - “Veach the man,” he wrote, followed by some choice emojis. - - Veach the man - — Willie Gay Jr. (@WillieG___) March 24, 2022 - - - The most important reaction, however, came from Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes.
