The loss in Super Bowl 2025 hit hard and continues to signal changes for the Kansas City Chiefs. Head coach Andy Reid has already made it clear that the offense led by Patrick Mahomes will be restructured to focus on deeper plays, involving key weapons like Xavier Worthy and Travis Kelce.

The results have been clear for Mahomes’ team, but the demands never stop, especially with the most intense part of preseason approaching.
