When the Kansas City Chiefs lost Tyreek Hill last offseason, many claimed that Patrick Mahomes wouldn’t be the same quarterback.
However, the Chiefs quarterback was able to shut down all the critics, and in his newly built offense, Justin Watson emerged as a massive deep threat.
The speedy WR is back in Kansas City as he recently signed a two-year extension with the team, and he is expected to be even better this season.
The Chiefs fans are extremely happy with Watson’s return as they see him as a player who is a great fit for their system and doesn’t cost much as well. Here’s how Chiefs fans on social media reacted to his extension:
Throughout the offseason, the Kansas City Chiefs were linked with moves for Odell Beckham Jr. and DeAndre Hopkins. However, it seems like none of them will play alongside Mahomes next season.
OBJ has already signed with the Ravens, and Hopkins’ contract will be difficult for the Chiefs to handle. Hopefully, Justin Watson will justify the faith the franchise has in him, and come up big for Patrick Mahomes’ offense next season.

Last season was the perfect opportunity for the rest of the NFL to take advantage of a young Kansas City Chiefs team and they failed to do so. Next season, the Patrick Mahomes-led team will be even better and that will be a scary sight.
The Chiefs played with multiple rookies throughout the past season who have improved and will be expected to make a big jump in 2023.
As a result, it won’t be a surprise if the Chiefs end up winning another Super Bowl, and Mahomes wins his third regular season MVP award.
It’s safe to say that the Chiefs are a modern-day dynasty. Interestingly, the way they operate in the offseason has shown glimpses of how the New England Patriots worked during their time at the top.
