Show Notes

The NFL Draft will happen next week from home offices and basements throughout the league. This shut-in setting was created by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has taken the event from glitzy Las Vegas to the sanctity of home. But the show goes on. It will be one of the few live sporting events to occur in the past month.

Chiefs general manager Brett Veach spoke to the challenges of the unique setting, the Chiefs objectives in the draft and took questions about the contracts of defensive tackle Chris Jones, who will play on the franchise tag this year, and quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
