Change to Patrick Mahomes at QB the major story at Chiefs camp

The Kansas City Chiefs open training camp on July 26 at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph. Here's a closer look at the Chiefs' camp:

Top storyline: The Chiefs are making their first change at quarterback since 2013, when they traded for Alex Smith. His replacement, Patrick Mahomes, isn't just any QB but the first drafted by the Chiefs in the first round since 1983. But the Chiefs aren't viewing this as a developmental season for Mahomes, who played in just one game last year as a rookie. They're expecting him to play well and for the offense -- which includes top veteran skill players in tight end Travis Kelce and wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins -- to score a lot of points.
