Kansas City Chiefs Cut Wide Receiver Kadarius Toney

Kadarius Toney’s time in Kansas City has come to an end, according to Adam Schefter. Toney was one of the final cuts as the Kansas City Chiefs trimmed their roster to 53 ahead of the regular season.

Toney was drafted by the New York Giants with pick No. 20 in the 2021 NFL draft. As a rookie he caught 39 passes for 420 yards and zero touchdowns. Midway through his second season the Giants gave up and traded Toney to the Chiefs for a third- and sixth- round pick. He played sparingly for the Chiefs on their run to Super Bowl LVII.

Last season he appeared in a career-high 13 games and caught 27 passes before he was benched for the final three regular season games. He did not play during the playoffs as the Chiefs won their second straight Super Bowl.

During the offseason it looked like Toney was part of the team’s plans according to ESPN. The embattled wide receiver worked out with Patrick Mahomes in Texas and during training camp Andy Reid teased using him at running back, but with the team bringing back JuJu Smith-Schuster, he obviously became expendable again.

How to Watch Chiefs vs. Steelers: NFL Week 17 TV, Odds, Preview

For the first time since the 2022 AFC playoffs, the Kansas City Chiefs will square off against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Kansas City has a three-game winning streak over Pittsburgh, which includes the aforementioned contest in the Wild Card round of the postseason. This year, both teams have already clinched playoff berths but still have something to play for. The Chiefs, specifically, can get the best Christmas present of all by winning and locking up the one-seed and a first-round bye. A win makes them unreachable to the Buffalo Bills. The Steelers, on the other hand, are looking to maintain their division lead. They hold a conference tiebreaker over the surging Baltimore Ravens but are far from certain to keep that.

Here’s everything you need to know and how you can follow along with the Chiefs as they square off against the Steelers on Wednesday.

Search for missing Reno County man ends, Silver Alert still in effect

WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) – After three full days of searching on land and in area waters, the search for 80-year-old Gary Foster has been put on hold.

The Reno County Sheriff’s Office said Foster’s family decided to postpone the search until after the holidays, when efforts will resume as a recovery mission.

Over the last 72 hours, crews launched a large-scale effort involving over 200 people combing a five-mile radius around where he was last seen. The Kansas Highway Patrol searched the area via aircraft, and Saline County provided a water rescue team and sonar to scan nearby ponds.

The Silver Alert for Foster remains in effect.
