Veach: Fisher Projected as a Mid-August Return
This was from Veach's zoom presser this morning in response to Sam Mellinger following up on a previous response by Veach where he said Mahomes, Schwartz and Fisher were all expected back by August.
When asked, Veach referred again to his notes from Rick (Burkholder) that stated Fisher is projected as a "mid-August return". Veach then went on to clarify that there's obviously other variables that could impact that but as far as the information he had in front of him from Rick and the medical staff, mid-August is the projection. LINK (question is asked at 20:25 mark): https://fb.watch/3Z3FNr0fc7/ Now, Fisher will probably be put on PUP list to start the season but still, this is phenomenal news considering many were expecting Fisher to miss the 2021-22 season entirely. |

I am pretty sure that any potential offensive tackle the Chiefs would draft this year will have played in a football game and participated in an organized football practice more recently than October 2019 as is the case with Niang.

And just FYI, but in Andy Reid's 2 decades of coaching, he's NEVER started a rookie tackle.

When Albert went out for the last 4 games of the season, who started at Left Tackle? Oh yeah, Donald ****ing Stephenson. Andy does not like playing rookie tackles. |

I wonder if there’s any chance the Chiefs cut LDT.
I definitely don’t think so, but if we didn’t have question marks all over the OL, I think he would be a candidate. There are going to be a lot of G’s available. |

Nope. It cost us dead money to cut him in any situation this year.

Like I said though, didn’t think it would happen either way. Just some LNBS looking at these G’s that are and might be available. I saw Zeitler and Norwell could be cut or traded. They’d still be great additions (if they’re cut). |

Andy’s history at his tackle spots has shown he prefers to get “sure things” at the OT spots. Tre Thomas was drafted in 1998 (the year before Andy got to Philly) and started day one...so Andy didn’t have to worry about LT until 2009 when he signed Jason Peters to replace him when Tre was 34 years old. Peters started at LT till...last year. 2 left tackles in his whole time in Philly and only had to replace one once. Andy signed Jon Runyon in his second year in Philly and he was his starter at RT till 2009. Andy never successfully replaced Runyon and the RT spot was a revolving door after Runyan was done. Andy prefers vets at the OT spots. |
