Arrowhead Satisfaction editor-in-chief Pete Sweeney was there. He posted some observations on social media — beginning with one other unseasonably cool (and welcome) day.
It was just a little hotter in St. Joe on Wednesday, however nonetheless snug for the gamers. The temperature was within the low 70s as follow started and stayed that approach by means of the exercise.

One participant was again, one participant was out and one other left early.

LB Swayze Bozeman (knee), who Dave Toub has been excessive on, left early. OL Wanya Morris (knee) had a quick harm scare however was OK.

As common, the protection didn’t simply lay down for the offense.
CB Joshua Williams broke up the primary go of the day by Patrick Mahomes (supposed for WR Rashee Rice) throughout 11-on-11. QB Carson Wentz and WR Justyn Ross obtained Williams a few classes later when Wentz hit Ross’ again shoulder in stride inside the again left pylon for a TD.

Xavier Worthy has been showin’ us sumpin’!
I’ve appreciated what Andy Reid has been drawing up for Xavier Worthy by way of jet motion. You do not essentially want a pace again with this solid of broad receivers. Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce apart, Mahomes’ reference to Worthy has been the strongest, for my part.
— Pete Sweeney (@pgsween) August 7, 2024
Mahomes on Worthy: “He does a fantastic job. He is quick, however it’s virtually like he can run quick, however he can run with tempo, quick. He is in a position to observe the ball very well, he runs numerous nice routes, and he’ll get as bodily as any camp right here. He is doing a fantastic job, making an attempt to…

The rookie tight finish made a spotlight play.
I counted two touchdowns from Mahomes within the long-drive 11-on-11 interval: One to TE Jared Wiley on a play-action look — and one other on a Reid particular… a shovel go inside from Mahomes to RB Isiah Pacheco.

Each Mecole Hardman and Skyy Moore had highlights with Carson Wentz.
Throughout his turns for 11-on-11 work, Wentz additionally discovered WR Mecole Hardman for a deep landing and later linked with WR Skyy Moore for a rating.
— Pete Sweeney (@pgsween) August 7, 2024
As talked about in a earlier publish, I actually thought Hardman was cooking on this look. Gathering my notes collectively, I counted six catches on seven targets, with Hardman monitoring down every little thing thrown in his neighborhood. Ideally suited for him for this to hold into preseason starting Sat.

The previous first-round cornerback continues to dwell as much as his billing.
Throughout 7-on-7 work, CB Trent McDuffie intercepted Mahomes on a go supposed for Moore. This play was posted by @Chiefs on Wednesday, however a great take a look at a lot of what we now have seen from McD all camp: https://t.co/CerEgTfMs6

With Jaylen Watson again, the rotation is starting to settle in.
The CB rotation mimicked what we noticed on Wednesday, with Williams and Jaylen Watson exterior, McDuffie inside. Williams got here off at occasions with McDuffie kicking exterior and Chamarri Conner working slot. It is truthful to say Watson remains to be shaking off some rust, however he simply got here again.
— Pete Sweeney (@pgsween) August 7, 2024
In the meantime, the offensive line appears set.
The OL rotation has been static, with rookie Kingsley Suamataia persevering with to work left sort out. Mike Caliendo labored at left guard Wednesday, with Joe Thuney nonetheless working again. Thuney is not going to play Saturday, and I might anticipate Caliendo.
Morris stays the second-team left sort out.

The boys within the trenches battled — and generally needed to be despatched to their corners.
OL vs. DL interval standouts
OL: Creed Humphrey, McKade Mettauer, Trey Smith, Kingsley SuamataiaDL: George Karlaftis, Malik Herring, Fabien Lovett

The Chiefs’ linemen are able to see one other jersey, too, with Herring and Chu Godrick needing to be separated after a rep.

If Louis Rees-Zammit makes the group, it doesn’t appear to be it’s going to be due to what he does on offense.

And that’s it from Buchanan County earlier than Saturday’s recreation in Duval County.
Kansas Metropolis closes down St. Joe for the week, as they now put together for Jacksonville. Reid mentioned that every quarterback would get 1 / 4, however my guess is it is truly one thing like this: https://t.co/L3SLJkAXCP
