It started with Tyrann Mathieu. The former Arizona Cardinals 2013 third-round safety had a bounce back year with the Houston Texans in 2018, was well liked, loved the city himself, but signed a three-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The “Honey Badger” earned two Pro Bowl appearances and two first-team All-Pro selections. Coming to Houston was the rejuvenation Mathieu needed to get his career back on track.
Then, the Chiefs signed Justin Reid to a three-year deal in free agency.
