"Word is he would not TikTok with Jackson Mahomes and Juju", "Netflix documentary coming soon" - NFL fans react to news of controversial Chiefs player Josh Gordon being cut by franchise

The Kansas City Chiefs have a set roster for the 2022-23 NFL season.As Tuesday's deadline comes closer, many players are due to see their chances at an NFL career fade away. Among those is veteran wide receiver Josh Gordon, who failed to make the Chiefs' 53-man roster for the upcoming season.According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Gordon has shown &quot;great character&quot; during his time in Kansas City. The Chiefs are open to bringing him back, but he is currently the &quot;odd man out.&quot; He is best known for his 2013-14 season with the Cleveland Browns, where he recorded 87 receptions for a league-leading 1,646 yards and nine touchdowns.However, the wideout has run into some controversy over his career. He's previously been linked to substance abuse and performance-enhancing drug (PED) usage. In December 2019, the NFL suspended him indefinitely for violation of the league's policy on PEDs and substance abuse.Tom Pelissero@TomPelisseroThe #Chiefs are releasing WR Josh Gordon, per source.

Kansas City will aim to do better in the upcoming season and make their third Super Bowl trip in four years.Their offense, albeit with a new look, still has a lot of firepower. They have Travis Kelce, newly acquired JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marques Valdes-Scantling leading the way. But the improvement they are looking for won't come easily after trading receiver Tyreek Hill and safety Tyrann Mathieu.Patrick Mahomes is supplemented with a solid offensive line and stable defensive pieces. Andy Reid's side will certainly be a threat in the Super Bowl race, despite the AFC being loaded with solid teams.Their first task in the upcoming campaign is to retain the AFC West crown. Though the Chiefs have won it six years in a row, the times appear to be changing. The Los Angeles Chargers, Las Vegas Raiders and Denver Broncos have made significant additions to their respective rosters.The Broncos have gone all-in and traded for Russell Wilson. The Chargers have added Khalil Mack and JC Jackson to their defense and possess one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL. The Las Vegas Raiders added Davante Adams to a potent passing game.It will be interesting to see how the upcoming season pans out for Kansas City.
