The Kansas City Chiefs have a tendency to do this.
They find a wide receiver who wasn’t wanted elsewhere and turn him into a useful piece of their offense.
A guy like Justin Watson filled that role in recent years, but he’s gone. So who’s next up?
Insert the name Tyquan Thornton here. The journeyman and former Patriots wideout is tearing it up at training camp.
One man’s suspension is another man’s opportunity.
Thornton was a second-round pick of the Patriots in 2022, not really that long ago.
In his career, he has 39 catches for 385 yards.
He was a worthwhile chance for the Chiefs, who know what to do with talented players.
And if he keeps up what he’s doing in training camp, Thornton could be a huge piece in the early going.
