The same 50 media members who voted for the All-Pro team also vote for the other AP awards. And the All-Pro voting points strongly toward the man who will become the 2018 MVP.That man is Patrick Mahomes.The Chiefs quarterback received 45 of the 50 votes at the quarterback position Womens Harrison Butker Jersey , with only five voting for Saints quarterback Drew Brees. Given the reality that in most years the award goes to a quarterback, given that the Chiefs and the Saints earned the No. 1 seed in their respective conferences, given that Mahomes threw for 50 touchdown passes and more than 5,000 yards, given that he put together a highlight reel in one season better than most quarterbacks compile for a full career Daniel Sorensen Jersey , and given that Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald didn’t set the single-season sack record, it would be more than a shock at this point if Mahomes isn’t named the MVP the night before the Super Bowl.So clear the spot on the shelf, Patrick. You’ll be putting the first of likely many MVP awards up there in 29 days.Assuming you’re not otherwise getting ready to chase the only individual award better than regular-season MVP: Super Bowl MVP. KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs wide receiver De’Anthony Thomas was suspended for the season opener for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy Saturday, part of a busy cut day that included a pair of trades and the movement of several players to injured lists.The Chiefs sent backup running back Carlos Hyde to the Houston Texans for Martinas Rankin http://www.chiefslockerroom.com/authentic-terrance-smith-jersey , a former third-round pick who will provide depth along the offensive line. They also traded defensive back Mark Fields to the Minnesota Vikings for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2021 draft.Hyde was signed to a one-year deal and given every opportunity to make the team, but he failed to hold onto the No. 2 job. Rookie running back Darwin Thompson passed Hyde early in camp, and veteran Darrell Williams locked up the No. 3 spot with a strong preseason.“We were really trying to identify a young tackle,” Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said. “A young kid who has a lot of upside who we can develop and we have under contractual control.”The decision to keep Thomas — despite his one-game suspension — may have saved cornerback-turned-wide receiver Tremon Smith’s job for at least a week. The speedy Smith fulfills many of the same jobs as Thomas on special teams, including the crucial punt-coverage role.“We always talk about when we come down to the final days here how critical special teams are Womens Travis Kelce Jersey ,” Veach said. “Tremon did a great job for us last year in the special teams game.”Defensive back Morris Claiborne joined Thomas on the reserve-suspended list while he misses the first four games of the regular season for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. Claiborne was signed midway through training camp and played considerably in the last couple of preseason games.Veach acknowledged Saturday he will “certainly” be looking for help at cornerback among the other players that were cut. But Veach also said he’s comfortable using his trio of safeties — Tyrann Mathieu, Juan Thornhill and Jordan Lucas — at cornerback if necessary.Veach also said he made some calls about a trade for a cornerback but nothing materialized.Defensive end Breeland Speaks and wide receiver Gehrig Dieter were placed on injured reserve as the Chiefs continued to trim their roster to the 53-man limit ahead of their opener in Jacksonville.After a dismal rookie season, Speaks had begun to flourish in the Chiefs’ new 4-3 defensive set before hurting his knee. Veach said that Speaks’ ACL was intact but there were complications with an MCL surgery, ultimately ending the pass rusher’s season.“He’s such a young guy that there’s no way you want to kind of put a designated tag on him and rush him back out there,” Veach said of the second-year pro. “The best way to make sure this thing will fully heal is to take care of this right now.”Dieter missed nearly all of training camp with a back injury.The Chiefs continued to trim their roster to the 53-man limit ahead of their opener at Jacksonville on Sept. 8 by placing linebacker Darius Harris on the non-football injury list and waiving wide receiver Felton Davis and cornerback Michael Hunter with an injury designation.Among the big names that were cut were offensive lineman Khalil McKenzie De'Anthony Thomas Jersey , a former draft pick who was trying to transition from defensive line to offensive line; cornerback D’Montre Wade, who impressed early in training camp but faded down the stretch; cornerback Herb Miller, who ran with the starting defense at some points during camp; and tight end Nick Keizer, who was competing for a backup job.The Chiefs signed veteran quarterback Matt Moore after losing backup Chad Henne to a broken ankle in their penultimate preseason game. He was kept ahead of Kyle Shurmur and Chase Litton, a pair of developmental prospects who played the majority of the fourth preseason game.“There were some guys we certainly tried to target and trade for and that didn’t happen http://www.chiefslockerroom.com/authentic-eric-murray-jersey ,” Veach said. “The roster is set for now, but I still think there could be two or three moves that we make.”
