Mahomes’ recovery will hover over the Chiefs’ entire offseason, with the star QB aiming to be ready for Week 1. There will be an array of questions on offense, from who the stand-in will be this offseason to Travis Kelce‘s future to how they revamp the operation with offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy returning. Yet those aren’t the only tough questions. The defense needs aid, particularly at the pass rusher.
Without a deep playoff run to recover from this time around, Reid & Co. plan to attack the offseason questions, come back stronger and jumpstart phase two of their dynasty.
“I think we do a good job with that, we try to give you a little different flavor every year and stay ahead of things,” Reid said when asked about avoiding becoming stagnant. “I think we’ve got to do a better job all the way around in every area, I think that’s important. And so, you go through and you hammer this thing out, you take every offensive play, every defensive play (and) every special teams play, you go through it, you make sure that you’ve got guys that are aware of the league and how things go there. Different trends offensively, defensively and on special teams and you use all the technology that’s out there. There’s no reason to be stagnant, you’ve got too many different options. You shouldn’t have to bring in the latest greatest here and there and all that. You’ve got all that right at a finger tip for you if you want to go that route.”
