Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew

The Kansas City Chiefs brought a new quarterback on board on Thursday.

The Chiefs have agreed to a one-year deal with Gardner Minshew, making him the team’s new backup quarterback behind Patrick Mahomes, according to multiple reports.

Minshew spent the 2024 season with the Las Vegas Raiders, where he made nine starts and appeared in 10 games. He threw nine touchdown passes and 10 interceptions while completing 66.3% of his pass attempts.

Minshew made a Pro Bowl as recently as 2023 when he was a member of the Indianapolis Colts. Kansas City will be the 28-year-old’s fifth home in the NFL, having previously played for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Philadelphia Eagles, Colts and Raiders. In his career, Minshew’s thrown 68 touchdowns and 34 interceptions while featuring in 59 games and making 46 starts.
