In what could be a shocking move, the Los Angeles Chargers or New Orleans Saints may be in the running to sign Kadarius Toney, a potential Super Bowl candidate who could be on the chopping block. According to reports, Toney, who had the opportunity to win back-to-back Super Bowl championships, has failed to meet expectations.
Since parting ways with Tyreek Hill, the team has been seeking reinforcements, landing Toney midway through his 2022 campaign with the New York Giants. However, with only one year remaining on his current contract with the Chiefs, it remains uncertain if he will be part of their plans for the 2024 season.
Toney showed flashes of potential during his rookie year with the Giants in 2021, but injuries have plagued his progress. The trade to Kansas City was seen as a chance for him to thrive in one of the league’s best offenses, but that hasn’t materialized. Despite opportunities arising with the departure of JuJu Smith-Schuster and Mecole Hardman, Toney has struggled to make a significant impact alongside Patrick Mahomes.
With competition heating up in training camp, including new additions Marquise Brown and Xavier Worthy, Toney’s future with the Chiefs seems uncertain. However, the Chargers and Saints could provide an opportunity for the cost-effective receiver to prove his worth.
The Saints, in particular, are in dire need of a wideout and Toney could be their affordable solution. A potential one-year deal with the team could be on the horizon, as the Chiefs opted not to pick up his fifth-year option.
In other parts of the league, teams like the Ravens, Panthers, and Cowboys could also be potential landing spots for Toney. Despite some disappointments in their receiving corps, the addition of Toney could provide a spark and add depth to their rosters.
As the NFL offseason progresses, all eyes will be on Toney as teams weigh their options in the quest for Super Bowl glory. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
