Chiefs’ Marquez Valdes-Scantling thinks former Packers teammate should join him in KC

Wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling didn’t put up splashy numbers in his first season with the Chiefs, but he was a key contributor.

Valdes-Scantling set a career high with 43 receptions and had 687 receiving yards, just 3 shy of his career best. In the playoffs, he scored two touchdowns and averaged 17.4 yards per reception.

The Chiefs signed Valdes-Scantling to a three-year contract last year, and now he’s trying to lure a former teammate to Kansas City.

Wide receiver Allen Lazard, the former Iowa State star, is a free agent after finishing his fifth season with the Packers.
