Despite Juan Thornhill’s appeal, Kadarius Toney wants Jerick McKinnon back with Chiefs
Running back Jerick McKinnon set career highs in receiving yards (512) and touchdown catches (nine) last season with the Chiefs but he’s currently a free agent.
Although McKinnon has yet to sign with a team, he’s received at least one offer. However, it’s not from a team official.
Juan Thornhill, the former Chiefs safety who signed with the Browns last month, reached out to McKinnon on Twitter.
Yo @JetMckinnon1 need a place to stay in Cleveland ?

McKinnon wasn’t just looking for a place to sign. He’ll be 31 next month and is seeking a nice payday. That led to a fun exchange between Thornhill and McKinnon.
hit my DM and tell me what you need

That invitation from Thornhill caught the eye of Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney, who made it clear he wants McKinnon back in Kansas City.
