SAD NEWS: Kansas city chiefs announced that Rashee Rice is Leaving immediately after Facing…..

The decision to have Mahomes learn behind Smith was strategic, with the Chiefs recognizing the complexity of NFL offenses compared to college-level strategies. They wanted Mahomes to gradually adapt to the intricacies of NFL playcalling and schemes.

Veach emphasized the importance of not rushing Mahomes into the spotlight unprepared, understanding the immense pressure and stakes involved. He also acknowledged the potential regrets that come with passing on other talented players in the draft.

The one thing that coach [Andy Reid] and I believed in was bringing Pat in here and allowing him to just process defenses and coverages and tendencies and how to master the pass protection and where you’re going to shift your line and where you’re going to send your running backs to pick up different blitz package,” Veach said.

Having won three titles in four Super Bowl appearances, Mahomes went on to be considered one of the finest quarterback in the NFL history.

However, despite his success in Miami, watching his former team win Super Bowl 57 was tough for Hill.

In a recent appearance on the Million Dollars Worth of Game podcast, he admitted that missing out on adding a Lombardi Trophy to his accolades was difficult.

Hill also revealed that he was rooting for the Chiefs when they faced the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 58, showing that his affection for his former team still runs deep.

“The first year that they went, me and my wife, we took a trip to Tokyo because it was kind of hard for me,” Hill said.

“I don’t want to look at no game, I don’t want to look at nothing. She was like ‘Babe, let’s just go to Tokyo, let’s just get away from it and let’s do our thing.’
