Chiefs cut Clyde Edwards-Helaire after running back’s career derailed by PTSD
NY Post
Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s rollercoaster career with the Chiefs is over.
Kansas City waived the former first-round pick on Monday as he was buried deep on the depth chart after missing the start of the season with PTSD.
“Love ya KC! A family I didn’t know I needed, y’all made a Kid from Baton Rouge dreams come true!” Edwards-Helaire wrote on X.
“To Chiefs Kingdom , its all love and the support I had in troubling times will forever be unmatched from you guys! With love!”
Edwards-Helaire was the first-round draft pick of the Chiefs in 2020 after helping LSU win the national championship alongside Joe Burrow.
Edwards-Helaire ran for 803 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie and was a crucial part of a Chiefs team that lost to the Buccaneers in the Super Bowl.
