Marquez Valdes-Scantling says he chose the Chiefs because it ‘seemed like home’

The former Green Bay wideout told Jim Romo he was happy to join Kansas City.

After the Kansas City Chiefs traded their star wide receiver Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins in late March, they were in need of veteran wide receivers. One of the ones they acquired was former Green Bay Packers wideout Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who was a free agent after completing the fourth year of his rookie contract with the Packers.

Speaking with CBS Sports’ Jim Rome earlier this week, the former fifth-round pick (who was also being encouraged to return to Green Bay) said that he decided on the Chiefs because it felt like home.
