Despite winning back-to-back Super Bowls, the Chiefs still need to upgrade their offense heading into the 2024 season. Kansas City signed veteran free agent WR Marquis Brown to a one-year, $7 million contract. They also used their 2024 first-round pick to draft Texas WR Xavier Worthy.

The team also has Rashee Rice and Justin Watson returning as WRs in 2024. Sky Moore is also likely to make the Kansas City roster, as he has seen some good special teams play. That leaves few WR spots on the roster. Kadarius Toney is likely to be cut from the team this offseason. Will Toney be on the 53-man roster in 2024?

Kadarius Toney is likely to be on the Chiefs roster this season.

With the 20th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Giants drafted WR Kadarius Toney from Florida. He was drafted by former Giants GM Dave Gettleman, and the team left both players after the 2021 season. Toney did not have a good relationship with head coach Brian Daboll and new GM Joe Schoen, and they traded him to Kansas City in 2022. He appeared in seven regular season games for the Chiefs in 2022, starting three. The former first-round pick appeared in the postseason with Kansas City, and energized Kansas City on special teams. His 65-yard punt return is still the longest in Super Bowl history.

Toney played in 13 games for the Chiefs in 2023, but did not play in a postseason game, including being benched in the Super Bowl against the 49ers. Given the way Toney finished last season, it’s hard to be optimistic about his chances of making the roster, especially since the Chiefs added a WR to their roster. Marquise Brown is a veteran WR who has proven he can make a difference. The team also has Xavier Worthy, who should be ready to fill the role Tyreek Hill played in Kansas City. Let’s not forget Rashsee Rice, who led the Chiefs in receptions and yards. It remains to be seen whether Kadarius Toney will survive the upcoming roster cuts.
