KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Carson Wentz had the thought years ago, when he had no reason to believe he would ever play for the Kansas City Chiefs, that it would be a good thing for him to play for Andy Reid and Matt Nagy.

The thought came to him from Nick Foles, then a teammate with the Philadelphia Eagles who had played for Reid in both Philadelphia and Kansas City and Nagy with the Chiefs.

"I remember all the good things he had to say about his time here,'' Wentz said after he signed his one-year contract with the Chiefs to be Patrick Mahomes' backup at quarterback.
