Chiefs Add Depth With 2 Offensive Playmakers

With the Kansas City Chiefs looking to get some late-season momentum and the No. 1 seed still up for grabs, the front office needed to find some hidden gems.

The Chiefs have struggled with subpar WR play all season long, so it only made sense that they kept looking for answers to their prayers.

Now, according to Aaron Wilson, they’ve signed both WR Anthony Miller and TE Izaiah Gathings, perhaps hoping they could make an immediate impact.

Gathings and fellow TE E.J. Jenkins attended a workout early on Tuesday, which made sense, as Gerrit Prince was demoted to the practice squad, and they could be in need of more depth in the position.

Also, Gathings had already spent time with the team this season, being waived before the start of the regular season.

As for Miller, that’s a little more interesting.

He was a star at Memphis and had a promising rookie season with the Chicago Bears, hauling in 423 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in 2018.

He spent three years in the Windy City before some brief and failed stints with the Houston Texans, Pittsburgh Steelers, and San Francisco 49ers.

Also, he had been a part of the Indianapolis Colts’ practice squad, but he was waived earlier in the season.

The former 51st pick of the draft hasn’t played in an actual game since November 2021, so this could be a bit of a desperate move by GM Brett Veach.

Then again, he’s still young, and it’s not like the team could do much worse at the position right now.

Bears Are Reportedly Doing ‘Serious Homework’ On 1 Coaching Candidate

Interim head coach Thomas Brown hasn’t won a game, leading most to believe there is little chance he gets any consideration to be the permanent replacement. With that in mind, the Bears reportedly are looking into other possible candidates. “The Bears are looking for a ‘leader of men’ for their opening at HC, and GM Ryan Poles has been doing ‘serious homework’ on [Miami] Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver, per Dianna Russini,” JPAFootball wrote on X.

Lakers Given Notable Odds To Make NBA Finals

(Photo by Sam Hodde/Getty Images)   Because of their history and roster, the Los Angeles Lakers are always aiming to reach the NBA Finals. However, that is obviously much easier said than done. This year, the betting markets believe they have a chance of competing for a championship, but it’s not a huge one. According to Polymarket, the Lakers have an eight percent shot of going to the Finals. Even with some smart acquisitions and Luka Doncic starting his first full season with the team, the Lakers still have their work cut out for them.

Standout Packers RB Gets Nominated For Notable NFL Award

(Photo by John Fisher/Getty Images)   The Green Bay Packers needed all hands on deck on Sunday. With Josh Jacobs out with a knee injury, someone would have to step up to lead the way against the Minnesota Vikings. Fortunately for them, backup RB Emanuel Wilson was more than up to the task. That’s why, after his strong performance, it’s not much of a surprise to see him being nominated for the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week: “Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12,” Kruse posted on X. #Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12. — Zach Kruse (@zachkruse2) November 24, 2025 Wilson was shifty and explosive out of the backfield.
