The Kansas City Chiefs have re-signed wide receiver Mecole Hardman, securing his return for a sixth season with the team. Hardman, initially a second-round pick in 2019, recorded 151 receptions for 2,088 yards and 16 touchdowns over his first four seasons. He joined the New York Jets as a free agent last year but was traded back to the Chiefs mid-season. In six regular-season games after returning, Hardman caught 14 passes for 118 yards and scored a game-winning touchdown in Super Bowl LVIII. With this re-signing, Hardman will look to continue his contributions to the back-to-back defending champions.
