Chiefs 53-man roster prediction: Can this team repeat in 2020?
Wide receiver (5, 16/53)
- 1. Tyreek Hill
- 2. Sammy Watkins
- 3. Mecole Hardman
- 4. Demarcus Robinson
- 5. Byron Pringle
If you’re a team that spreads the ball around as much as the Chiefs, you might want to have six receivers, but keeping five running backs or six receivers is an either-or type of proposition for them.
The Chiefs return their top five guys at the position from a season ago, and these five guys dominated the snaps with only De’Anthony Thomas getting even a chunk of plays (20) during the 2019 regular season.
The Chiefs will continue to ride this group and perhaps the best part about it is the fact that all of these five guys have chemistry with Mahomes now.
No one thought they would be able to bring Sammy Watkins back with his 2020 cap figure, but the Chiefs and Watkins figured things out and made it happen.
