Chiefs Add Former Patriots WR Tyquan Thornton to Practice Squad

The Kansas City Chiefs signed Tyquan Thornton after his release from the New England Patriots, seeking to enhance their receiving options.

Tyquan Thornton, a former second-round pick by the Patriots, joins the Chiefs' practice squad after being waived.
Thornton, known for his speed and vertical threat potential, was released following a regime change in New England.
Despite interest from multiple teams, including the New Orleans Saints, Thornton opted to join the defending champions.
In his NFL career, Thornton has recorded 385 receiving yards and two touchdowns over 28 games.
The Chiefs aim to bolster their receiving core with Thornton, who faces competition from established players like DeAndre Hopkins.
