Moments like this are part of the appeal for fans who make the trip to Missouri Western State University to watch the Chiefs run their drills at training camp. With a group of personalities like Kansas City hosts on its roster, these types of interactions are commonplace.
The team’s workouts on Friday were the last before their preseason schedule officially kicks off on Sunday when the Chiefs are set to face the New Orleans Saints in a highly anticipated exhibition matchup.
Watch for both McKinnon and Edwards-Helaire to be featured in Andy Reid’s game plan as the veteran head coach figure out his plan of attack for the 2023 regular season.
