0:08.5

Podcast Network, Steven Surda. Tyree Kill is with the Miami Dolphins, meaning he is no longer

0:14.4

a Kansas City Chief, but we did hear from brand new Chief Swider, Cever, Marquez, Valdez,

0:21.3

Scantley. He spoke to the media on Friday, and we got some of his thoughts on joining Kansas City,

0:27.8
