\"C\u00f3 If there’s one universally known fact about\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs<\/a>\u00a0HC Andy Reid, it’s his love of cheeseburgers.\u00a0A local Kansas City draft prospect further proved that point just a day ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

Minnesota OT Aireontae Ersery, who attended\u00a0Ruskin High School in Kansas City, recently spoke to our friend Harold R. Kuntz of FOX 4 KC. Ersery told Kuntz about a funny part of his pre-draft interaction with Reid.<\/p>\n

“Oh, man, I just kind of joked with him a little bit,” Ersery said. “I said, ‘Man, if you come pick me (in the draft), man, I’ll give you a cheeseburger every day.’ I’ll have it sitting on your desk for you every day. We laughed it out. It was all good.”<\/p>\n

Ersery knows that\u00a0the way to Reid’s heart is a good cheeseburger<\/a>, so why not attempt a little bit of NFL Draft-related bribery?<\/p>\n

“I know about Andy Reid,” he said. “I know a couple of things.”<\/p>\n

\n

He may or may not be drafted by the #Chiefs<\/a> — but Aireontae had plenty of good things to say about the Hometown team. <\/p>\n

"Feel like the Chiefs are a team very much considering me."
