It's become a go-to smart aleck remark when a team makes a transaction that deserves mention ... but isn't exactly worth of the cover of TIME magazine.
"Oh, Super Bowl here we come!'' is how it goes.
The Kansas City Chiefs might really be going to the Super Bowl (again), but no, their end of the week roster moves do not likely have a direct tie to that goal.
Nevertheless, the transactions are what they are and they are now official as the Chiefs made a trio of roster moves on Friday.
No longer with the club are ...
*Veteran guard Tremayne Anchrum, the former Los Angeles Rams seventh-round selection who joined the Chiefs just a month ago.
*Tight end Kevin Foelsch, who spent just 10 days with the club.
The third roster move?
*Rookie center Joey Lombard, who officially joined the team on Friday, is coming aboard. Lombard survived a tryout at minicamp and obviously has something on his resume that catches the eye of the Chiefs scouting department as the South Dakota product was also given a tryout at the team’s post-draft rookie camp.
Do the math, and that leaves an opening on the 90-man roster ... and one that Chiefs Digest reports figures to be filled by tight end Geor’Quarius Spivey, who apparently also impressed in his workout with the team. tried out for the team this week.
Spivey, who recently played in the UFL, actually signed with the Chiefs during the 2024’s training camp before being waived in the final roster cuts. ... and now gets another shot at a backup slot behind all-time great Travis Kelce.
