The Kansas City Chiefs have made a curious addition to their receiver room as they’ve signed Geor’quarius Spivey a tight end with a name no one’s ever going to forget, given that it’s straight out of a ‘Key & Peele’ sketch.
The Kansas City Chiefs made a quick decision after losing TE Izaiah Gathings to a hamstring injury on Wednesday after he joined the team last month, presenting star quarterback Patrick Mahomes with another option to throw to.
KPRC 2’s Aaron Wilson first reported that the reigning Super Bowl champions signed Geor’Quarius Spivey after a successful workout.

Matt Derrick of Chiefs Digest has since relayed that Spivey is wearing the No. 85 jersey, previously assigned to Gathings, at training camp. However, there were no matching roster moves at the time of the signing.
