Super Bowl Receiver's Rap Career Rumor Gets Major Update

One position on the Kansas City Chiefs' roster has a pretty unsightly history over the last few years. The Chiefs have brought in some talented receivers, but several keep finding themselves in issues occurring off the field. 

Kansas City is experiencing that now with Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy who are awaiting disciplinary action on separate incidents involving the two. They should be back on the field at some point next season, but the exact timeline for either player is uncertain. 

Another troublemaking receiver with recent connections to the Chiefs, Kadarius Toney, found himself back in the spotlight this week. Toney was arrested in February and accused of strangling a woman, but this buzz did not emerge from that situation. 

Rather, rumors of Toney's potential retirement from the game floated around social media. Toney has played in the league for only five years, so it would mark an abrupt and unfortunate end to a young career. 

However, Toney followed up with some clarification on his future after many believed he was leaving the game to pursue his career as a rapper. 

"Goofies on the net hollering im retiring," Kadarius wrote on Instagram. "Just want klout... ain speaking on the nomo."

He added a comment noting his appreciation for the new eyes on his music, writing "Love da attention for my musik tho... it's been a passion."

So Toney may not be calling it quits in terms of his playing career though he has a side venture clearly in the works. If he wants to not be forced off a football field, that would require a team to add him to their roster. 

Toney is currently a free agent after spending last season with the Cleveland Browns. He appeared in only three games and did not register a catch, marking the lowest totals of his career. 

The Chiefs themselves may be looking for some more help in the passing game, but will likely not find it in Toney, having conducted that experiment for two seasons.
