Since the Kansas City Chiefs decided not to bring back Sammy Watkins for a fourth season, the hunt has been on for his long-term replacement. In Clemson receiver Cornell Powell, the Chiefs may just have found him.
An offseason of frustration in the search for a receiver has required a lot of patience from Chiefs general manager Brett Veach — a trait Powell knows all about.
For the first four years of his college career, Powell had to bide his time and wait for his opportunity to showcase his talents — a typically stacked Clemson receiver room meant chances to get on the field were not as abundant as he would have liked.
