Less than 24 hours after the Kansas City Chiefs\u2018 21-7 win over the Cleveland Browns, the team made an unexpected roster move.<\/p>\n
The Chiefs announced the release of running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire, their first-round pick from the 2020 NFL Draft. While Edwards-Helaire registered a team-high 803 rushing yards in his rookie year, his production decreased every season thereafter.<\/p>\n
Despite permanently losing his starting role, he remained a fan favorite.<\/p>\n
Edwards-Helaire posted a goodbye message on X, \u201cLove ya KC! A family I didn\u2019t know I needed, y\u2019all made a Kid from Baton Rouge dreams come true! To Chiefs Kingdom , its all love and the support I had in troubling times will forever be unmatched from you guys! With love! \u2764\ufe0f \ud83d\udc9b -Clydro \u270c\ud83c\udffe.\u201d<\/p>\n
The running back\u2019s wife, JoJo Edwards Helaire, reacted to the news on her Instagram Stories. She posted a graphic of her husband\u2019s message and fan\u2019s note that read, \u201cI hate to see this \ud83e\udd7a I wish he and his wife nothing but the best, this is a hard goodbye \u2764\ufe0f\u200d\ud83e\ude79.\u201d<\/p>\n
