Here's an idea: Can McKenzie play corner?

Not a crazy idea but, I was thinking today how to minimize Hill with only using one guy, and I was thinking the fastest guy we have is McKenzie, and he has great hands.  If McKenzie could be taught to play corner in one week, seems Mahomes always throws to Hill when he is wide open, but when covered, or closely shadowed, he tends to look at other reads, and comes off Hill quickly, which if you watch the tape, trends into a hasty throw or scramble by the Chiefs signal caller.

 

I know some will laugh at this as McK is showing great promise on offense, but for one game, is the idea that terrible?

 

Thoughts?

Well, I do remember the drought years quite well in fact, however, if the idea is that bad, please elaborate, or not, your choice.

You don’t think Taron Johnson is just as quick as McKenzie, not to mention him and all of our other DBs already have many years of training as professional defensive backs?

Johnson isn't as fast as McKenzie, but yeah, he is vastly more experienced, so there's that!

WR to CB transition is possible and can help. I don't think 1 week is nearly enough time though OP to go straight up against Hill.

See 4min mark of Tre's video.

 

Also, Trevon Diggs seemed to do just fine.

not to mention he's going to be busy this week learning his offensive plan and probably being the guy playing as Hill for the Defense.

I hope we see him early and often honestly to shift KC's focus/GP on D.

No this is a crazy idea.
