Reacting to it, Mahomes showered praises on his teammate and commented on how well he catches the ball. He further said, “You’ve seen those flashes of how talented he can be. And then you’ve seen times where he’s just barely off of what we wanted. And he learns from that, he doesn’t make that same mistake.”

The questions were raised, as to which player will fill the void created by the decision. But, looking at Justyn’s performance in the practice sessions, it is clear he is the chosen WR for the Chiefs.
