Patrick Mahomes Boosts Playmaker’s Message After Chiefs Announce Contract

Edwards-Helaire, who turns 25 years old on April 11, rushed for career-low marks of 223 yards, 3.2 yards per carry, and one touchdown last season. Keeping with a trend, Edwards-Helaire has played a smaller percentage of the offensive snaps in every season of his career.

After posting 188 receiving yards last season – the second most of his career – Edwards-Helaire is poised to assume a larger role with Jerick McKinnon still a free agent. McKinnon had just 21 carries last season, one fewer than third-stringer La’Mical Perine. Perine is also back for the 2024 season.By season’s end, rookie second-round pick Rashee Rice emerged as the leader.

Other teams may be following suit. The Los Angeles Chargers broke up their aging wide receiver duo of Keenan Allen and Mike Williams as well as tight end Gerald Everett this offseason. That leaves Justin Herbert with 2023 first-rounder Quentin Johnston as his top weapon.

The Buffalo Bills traded disgruntled wideout Stefon Diggs and let Gabe Davis leave in free agency, essentially replacing them with Curtis Samuel and Mack Hollins.
