“Great quarterback. Who wouldn't love playing with a quarterback of his caliber ... as a receiver, you love playing with a quarterback like that — it's a blessing.”
Josh Downs on getting to play with Patrick Mahomes
“On the field, when he throws me the ball, just catch it and keep making plays when he throws it to me, and just do anything I can to learn the offense as fast as possible. I don't wanna be a guy that's asking everybody what the play is, what the formation is — I feel like that's when you kinda get left behind.”
Josh Downs on how he plans to build a rapport with Patrick Mahomes
Patrick Mahomes on the importance of his workouts with @bobbystroupe:
“It's helped a ton. You can see from the stuff that I do that whenever I get put in some bad positions, that sometimes I'm able to have some resistance to some injuries.”
Adds: “If I didn't see it, I wouldn't be doing it because it sucks to do, so I'll keep doing it.”
Patrick Mahomes on what Josh Downs adds to the offense:
“He does a great job of winning one-on-one matchups, which is always important. He runs routes really well ... you can tell he knows how to get himself open, settle in the right zones, and win vs man when he can.”
Adds: “I think it will be an easy transition for him to kinda do that stuff in our offense.”
Patrick Mahomes on what stood out in his meeting with WR Josh Downs:
“You can tell the intellect and how he's able to pick stuff up, and that he's a professional. He knows what he's doing, and he wants to come in and just compete, have success, and he wants to win.”
Andy Reid on sticking with Harrison Butker at kicker for Sunday's game vs Atlanta:
“Harrison's done such a great job for us over time here, and sometimes you go through these little peaks and valleys things, so you gotta give him a chance to work through them.”
Andy Reid on new #Chiefs WR Josh Downs:
“His strengths are his quickness, speed, and he knows how to set routes up — we saw that firsthand when we played him.”
Had been a while so decided to record a pod for @KCSportsNetwork w/ @JeffAllen71 last night.
Talked a little bit of everything on what's been going on with the Chiefs this season. Think you'll enjoy it.
You can find it this afternoon wherever you get your podcasts!
The Chiefs made a trade at the deadline buzzer for Colts WR Josh Downs
@MattVerderame and I explain why it was a move they absolutely had to do.

I was told part of Downs' appeal to KC is his ability to return punts. Don't be surprised if he sees some action in that regard.
With the Colts, Downs returned 32 punts in his career, including two this season
Kansas City made a splash by adding former Colts receiver Josh Downs today. Here's the impact his arrival will have on the Chiefs' offense. ⬇️ https://t.co/6Hu5QYHAH5
