Kadarius Toney has a few things going for him. He’s a former first-round pick. That carries weight in the league (sometimes longer than it should). He’s also incredibly athletic, as demonstrated in things like the 65-yard punt return he had in last year’s Super Bowl.
He’s also incredibly frustrating. Toney’s career has been characterized by crucial mistakes and he was inactive for the final three games of the regular season along with the postseason games leading up to the Super Bowl.
Heading toward cut day, he’s far from guaranteed to make the team. Head coach Andy Reid acknowledged Toney has “battled to make the team” amid a hotly contested receiver competition.
Marquise “Hollywood” Brown’s shoulder injury appears to be less severe than originally thought. That means the Chiefs have Rashee Rice, Brown, Justin Watson and Xavier Worthy as near-locks to make the roster.
That leaves Skyy Moore, Mecole Hardman, Justyn Ross and Toney battling for a few spots.
Who He Could Help: Los Angeles Chargers, Washington Commanders, Indianapolis Colts
Figuting out who Toney could help is difficult. On one hand, he’s electric with the ball in his hands and has put together some good games while in the league. On the other, where does someone go when they can’t succeed on the Kansas City Chiefs?
That being said, the Chargers are desperate for receiver help. Maybe Jim Harbaugh’s style of coaching can get Toney to be more consistent. The Commanders need some juice after just trading away Jahan Dotson and Shane Steichen is a good offensive mind on a team that needs to have someone to backup Josh Downs.
