Bills sign OLB Mike Danna to one-year contract | BuffaloBills.com<\/a><\/p>\n Danna comes to the AFC East from the AFC West where he spent the last six seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs. In 2025, the OLB made 14 starts and recorded 25 total tackles, one sack, one interception, four quarterback hits and three tackles for loss.<\/p>\n Throughout his six-year career, Danna played in 87 games (49 starts) and accumulated 194 total tackles, 21.5 sacks, 25 tackles for loss, 51 quarterback hits, six forced fumbles and one interception. He had a career-high 50 tackles, 6.5 sacks and 13 quarterback hits in 2023.<\/p>\n He was originally drafted by the Chiefs in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n Danna will wear No. 51 for the Bills. In a corresponding move, the Bills released cornerback MJ<\/a> Devonshire.<\/p>\n 2026 NFL rookies: Day 2-3 draft picks with instant impact | ESPN<\/a><\/p>\n R Mason Thomas<\/a>, Edge,\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0(No. 40)<\/p>\n Thomas was a top-25 player on\u00a0my final board, so this was great value for the Chiefs to stay patient and land him. What he lacks in size (6-foot-2, 249 pounds), he makes up for with juice. He\u2019s a blur coming off the edge, with strong first-step quickness and active, combative hands.<\/p>\n The Chiefs needed to find pass rushers who major in getting home quick to take the burden off\u00a0Chris Jones<\/a>. Mission accomplished.<\/p>\n Which 2026 NFL Draft picks were the best values, according to \u2018The Beast\u2019? | The Athletic<\/a><\/p>\n QB:\u00a0Garrett Nussmeier<\/a>,\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0(pick No. 249)<\/p>\n \u201cThe Beast\u201d rank: No. 82 (third-round grade)<\/p>\n There were pretty obvious health concerns with Nussmeier, and most teams preferred to take chances on other QBs ahead of him. But of all the potential future NFL backups in this draft class, I thought Nussmeier was the only one with a real shot to someday earn a starting job. There is plenty of Tony Romo<\/a> in Nussmeier\u2019s game.<\/p>\n Arrowhead Stadium transforms into \u2018Kansas City Stadium\u2019 for 2026 FIFA World Cup | WIBW<\/a><\/p>\n Crews are installing a soccer pitch inside the stadium and removing hundreds of signs as the venue prepares to become \u201cKansas City<\/a> Stadium\u201d for the tournament. The Kansas City Chiefs will hand over the symbolic keys to FIFA officials on Sunday.<\/p>\n Stadium changes underway<\/p>\n About 3,500 seats have been removed to make room for FIFA\u2019s media and broadcast setup, reducing capacity to between 65,000 and 68,000 for World Cup matches. Workers are removing or covering hundreds of signs throughout the stadium, including major sponsorships, as FIFA\u2019s sponsors take priority.<\/p>\n Even the Ring of Honor will carry FIFA branding during the tournament. The Hall of Fame will remain in place.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve started the clean site work already. You can see some of the signage has been removed,\u201d said Matt Kenny, Chiefs executive vice president of operations and events. \u201cYou will see a little bit of a transformation with respect to the signage and the branding that you\u2019re accustomed to for Chiefs matches.\u201d<\/p>\n Field modifications<\/p>\n Crews are rebuilding the field from scratch using Bermuda grass, the same variety used for Chiefs games. Workers will weave synthetic fiber into the turf to meet FIFA standards for ball bounce and playability.<\/p>\n \u201cThe crown of the field for a FIFA pitch is different than what it is for NFL football,\u201d said Brandon Hamilton, Chiefs vice president of stadium operations and facilities. \u201cWe are also going to be installing a synthetic fiber into the pitch. It is a requirement that FIFA has to help reinforce the turf.\u201d<\/p>\n Chiefs Single-Game Tickets Set To Go On Sale Friday | The Mothership<\/a><\/p>\n With the 2026 Kansas City Chiefs schedule set to be released on Thursday evening, single-game and group tickets for all home games at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium will go on sale Friday, May 15.<\/p>\n Tickets may be purchased at\u00a0www.chiefs.com\u00a0by the public beginning at 11 a.m. Friday. Season Ticket Members will have an exclusive online presale beginning at 10 a.m. Friday. The club will notify Season Ticket Members via email with instructions on how to purchase single-game tickets.<\/p>\n In continuation of the team\u2019s long-standing policy, the taxpayers of Jackson County, Missouri, will have a presale opportunity to purchase tickets for the 2026 season beginning at 8 a.m. Friday. The Jackson County taxpayer presale will take place online only and purchasers must use a credit card with a billing zip code within Jackson County to participate.<\/p>\n 2026 Offseason Report Cards for Every NFL Team | Bleacher Report<\/a><\/p>\n Grade: C+<\/p>\n The Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 decision to immediately sign running back Kenneth Walker III<\/a> at the onset of free agency signals a shift away from the team\u2019s overreliance on Patrick Mahomes<\/a>, particularly after the quarterback suffered a torn ACL to end his 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n Walker and fifth-round rookie Emmett Johnson can change the Chiefs\u2019 offensive approach, with a heavier emphasis on the run game. Kansas City should snap its eight-season streak without a 1,000-yard rusher.<\/p>\n Conversely, the Chiefs\u2019 approach at cornerback is counterintuitive. The team traded a former first-team All-Pro in Trent McDuffie<\/a> to the Los Angeles Rams<\/a> for a first-round pick, then used its earlier first-round pick, plus a trade-up, to select the incoming class\u2019 best corner, Mansoor Delane.<\/p>\n Kansas City\u2019s second-round selection of R Mason Thomas could produce a greater impact by providing much-needed juice to the defense\u2019s pass rush.<\/p>\n Chiefs won\u2019t have Christmas game for first time in 3 seasons, and more predictions about the 2026 NFL schedule for Kansas City | A to Z Sports<\/a><\/p>\n The Kansas City Chiefs will play an international game for the second consecutive season<\/p>\n The NFL is trending towards international games becoming a fixture of every team\u2019s schedule. The Chiefs have been making an aggressive push to play in Spain this year,\u00a0per Team President Mark Donovan, and they\u2019re actually a realistic option. The Atlanta Falcons<\/a> are the home team for this season\u2019s Spain game, and they\u2019re on K.C.\u2019s list of away opponents in 2026. The only way I see this not happening is if the NFL schedules the Spain game for early in the season when the status surrounding Patrick Mahomes is in question.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Around the NFL<\/p>\n Sources: Chargers, TE David Njoku agree to one-year deal | ESPN<\/a><\/p>\n Njoku, 29, became a free agent after his contract voided on Feb. 10. Over the entirety of his nine-year career, all in Cleveland<\/a>, Njoku ranks second in Browns<\/a> history in touchdown catches (34) and receptions (384) for a tight end, only trailing Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome.<\/p>\n However, Njoku has missed 11 games due to injury in the last two seasons. His production also dipped in 2025; although he caught four touchdown passes, he recorded 33 catches for 293 yards. Njoku\u2019s 8.9 yards per reception were the lowest in a season since he was limited to four games in 2019 because of injury.<\/p>\n Njoku joins a Chargers<\/a> tight end group headlined by\u00a0Oronde Gadsden<\/a>, who had 49 catches for 664 yards and three touchdowns as a rookie last season. Los Angeles<\/a> also has blocking tight end\u00a0Charlie Kolar<\/a>\u00a0on its roster.<\/p>\n NFL schedule release news, rumors, live updates: Cowboys face Eagles on Thanksgiving, Giants on \u2018SNF\u2019 opener; Lions-Bills set for \u2018TNF\u2019 Week 2 | Yahoo!
