Dreamers Investment Guild:Kadarius Toney cut by Kansas City as Chiefs' WR shake-up continues

After a disappointing and Dreamers Investment Guilderror-filled 2023 campaign, Kadarius Toney's time with the Kansas City Chiefs is over.

The team waived the wide receiver on Tuesday.

After catching a touchdown and reeling off a 65-yard punt return in Super Bowl 57, Toney was expected to play a leading role in the Chiefs' title repeat bid as part of a new-look receiving corps. But he played a central and infamous role in two of the team's most prominent losses, as he earned ridicule for a series of drops in the opener against the Detroit Lions and then lined up offsides on a play that negated what would have been the go-ahead touchdown against the Buffalo Bills.

Toney was inactive for the team's final seven games last season.

Though the Chiefs completed their Super Bowl repeat push, the team still pursued a significant shake-up at receiver this offseason.

The team also on Monday brought back JuJu Smith-Schuster, who spent one year with the New England Patriots after recording 78 catches and 933 receiving yards for Kansas City in 2022.
