A KC Chiefs scout believes 2024 NFL Draft pick Jared Wiley has more to his game than some think, and Wiley is excited to join his new offense.
The Kansas City Chiefs have a new tight end in town: TCU product Jared Wiley , a five-year college player.
Wiley's last two seasons were huge in making him a legitimate draft prospect. According to Chiefs regional scout Jason Lamb, he's someone who"loves football" and was routinely early to the practice field and late to leave. Lamb believes Wiley's college experience will come in handy, but there's plenty to his game that doesn't register with some folks on the surface. His upside is real.
"Because he’s a bigger guy, you expect him maybe to just be more of a blocker. But once you see him getting open, making catches and being able to make plays after the catch in the open field, that’s something you kind of get excited about for sure.” Now, Wiley will go from catching passes in college to potentially catching them from Patrick Mahomes. He'll go from a nice collegiate tight end piece to learning from a future Hall of Fame player in Travis Kelce. When asked about Kansas City's offense, Wiley praised the unit as something he's excited to get involved with.
