Chiefs Wire: Former TCU RB Emani Bailey to sign with Chiefs

Ed Easton Jr.

The roster additions don’t end following the NFL draft, as every general manager around the league seeks more young talent from the undrafted players pool. Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach prides himself on making wise selections in the undrafted free-agent market after years of success.

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero states that former TCU running back Emani Bailey will join Kansas City after being undrafted. Bailey is an improving runner who started his college career in Louisiana from 2020 to 2021 before entering the transfer portal to TCU. He served primarily as the third running back in his first year with the Horned Frogs until becoming the starter last season.

I wish he would've stuck around for one more year.

Seems like he either had a need or got bad advice

Another year at TCU does him no good. Tear ‘em up, Emani!

He stayed with TCU for his college career.

He didn’t transfer out for more NIL money.

All the best to him. Frog for life!

Go Frogs!

Even if he had a need, I’d imagine in the NIL era return to college (for TCU or someone else) is better than being an UDFA

For those that think he made a mistake in leaving, what good would coming back do for him when Hoover's throwing the ball 40 times a game? His draft stock was not going to improve. Might as well give the NFL a shot and avoid the wear and tear of another college season.
