Mecole Hardman's release shows why the Chiefs can’t look back anymore

Former Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman did not survive the Green Bay Packers' final roster cutdowns, as the 2019 second-rounder was released today. Hardman had two stints across six seasons with the Chiefs from 2019 to 2022 and was acquired in a mid-season trade from the New York Jets in 2023.

During his time in Kansas City, Hardman was named to one Pro Bowl as a return man, played in three Super Bowls (missing LVII and LIX with injuries), and won two of them. He was a central piece in one of the most memorable moments in NFL history with his overtime walk-off touchdown reception in Super Bowl LVIII.
