in his Monday morning Football Morning in America column."Renowned NFL columnist Peter King made a good point Monday morning in his weekly “Football Morning in America” column for NBC Sports. With free agency Juan Thornhill Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys , the NFL Draft and the undrafted free agency period in the books, teams are mostly set for 2019 barring a preseason trade.With that in mind, King posted his initial power rankings for the 2019 season—and you didn’t need to scroll too far down to find the Kansas City Chiefs, King’s top-ranked team.King is going with the 23-year-old reigning MVP, who several analysts, including ESPN’s Louis Riddick, have said should stand to improve this season. Even without now-Browns running back Kareem Hunt and wide receiver Tyreek Hill for at least a period of time, King likes the Chiefs as the league’s top team because of No. 15.I thought King’s note about Hill was interesting due to his language of “a possible suspension to start the season.” Someone asked me on Twitter Friday if I thought Hill would play for the Chiefs in 2019. The answer is simple: in my mind Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys Stitched , the chances of Hill remaining in Kansas City become higher with each passing day. The latest from the Chiefs on Hill is still their statement from draft weekend—the wide receiver won’t partake in offseason team activities. In early May, Hill’s lawyer denied child abuse claims in a letter to the NFL.Assuming no new information on the situation is released, I now believe Hill will play for the club. I also believe he will serve some sort of suspension, and if that is the case, the Chiefs will likely need to rely on the rookie earlier than they otherwise would have.I think there is a misconception in Kansas City and nationally that the Chiefs, in the case of a Hill suspension or release, would simply run the exact same game plans, swapping in Hardman for whatever it was that Hill would have been asked to do.What I see as much more likely is Hardman being part of a different game plan entirely that primarily revolves around the use of Travis Kelce Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys 2019 , Sammy Watkins and Damien Williams. Hardman would maintain the home-run ability on returns, setting up better field position for Mahomes and company. If and when Hill returned to the club, he would regain a primary role as Hardman continued to develop.King rounded out the top five with the 2) New England Patriots, 3) Indianapolis Colts, 4) Los Angeles Rams and 5) Los Angeles Chargers. King placed the Oakland Raiders 19th and the Denver Broncos 24th. I encourage you to read his full column and rankings here.

Thomas had told BaltimoreRavens.com he thought he was going to Kansas City on a two-year or one-year deal and was “going to bet on himself and hit the market again.”The Chiefs initially pursued the 29-year-old, five-time All-Pro at last year’s trade deadline before he broke his leg, and we know now that Thomas instead agreed upon a four-year, $55 million contract ($32 million guaranteed) with the Ravens at the last second during free agency. You can’t blame him for that.But the agony is in the details.Thomas joined The Rich Eisen Show on Thursday, and Eisen asked him about the free agency process.Thomas told Eisen he had no meetings with Baltimore before the contract offer.Thomas said the first thing that came to his mind was having to break the commitment he had made to the Chiefs.That close to Tyrann Mathieu and Earl Thomas together in Kansas City.
