The Kansas City Chiefs are rumored to be interested in acquiring a new wide receiver ahead of the 2026 NFL trade deadline, but it remains unclear if general manager Brett Veach will be able to get a deal done.
At 6-2, Kansas City is among the league's top contenders this season, but star quarterback Patrick Mahomes has struggled to get the Chiefs' offense in gear through the team's first eight games.
After defeating the New York Jets 35-12 in Week 9, Kansas City's front office will get its final chance to add a star wideout to head coach Andy Reid's receiving corps before the Chiefs make their final push for another Super Bowl berth in the second half of the regular season.
