Maclin doesn't stay healthy
His production was something a low rd pick can do.
Def not worth keeping him for the money that he was making.
I'm sure they asked him to re-do his contract, he probably refused. They tried trading him during the draft, nobody bit, so now they've released him in the most cap friendly way they could.
Having that said, they need someone to replace him. Other than Hill and Kelce, the Chiefs don't have any receiving weapons. Conley's the 2nd best WR on this team as we speak and he's really JAG.
