Overview

  • Graham Walker, half-brother of Patrick Mahomes, is among 87 players invited to the Kansas City Chiefs' rookie minicamp on a tryout basis.
  • Walker transitioned from wide receiver at Brown University to tight end at Rice University, where he recorded 24 catches for 252 yards in his final college season.
  • The Chiefs extended the invite after Walker went undrafted in the 2025 NFL Draft, giving him an opportunity to showcase his skills despite steep competition at the tight end position.
  • Standing at 6’3” and 227 pounds, Walker faces challenges due to his size and the depth of the Chiefs’ tight end roster, which includes veteran Travis Kelce and backup Noah Gray.
  • Walker’s journey highlights themes of family legacy, adaptability, and resilience as he seeks to turn his NFL aspirations into reality.
