Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver and Super Bowl LVIII hero Mecole Hardman raised eyebrows with some comments he made on “The Pivot” on Tuesday when he told host and NFL analyst Ryan Clark that he’d had conversations with the Chiefs prior to a trade that sent him back to Kansas City after an underwhelming stint with the New York Jets.
Hardman, who signed with the Jets last offseason, explained to Clark the issues that led to things not working out in New York, before adding that he had spoken with Patrick Mahomes and Chiefs GM Brett Veach prior to being traded back to the franchise, urging them to “come get me.”
“I’m telling you right now, I was so checked out, like, it was over with. I had already talked to [Chiefs GM Brett] Veach and Pat [Mahomes], like, 'Come get me,’” said Hardman.
