The Kansas City Chiefs have had their first round pick Dontari Poe in mandatory minicamp this week, as well as the rest of the offseason before this week. That's notable because Poe has yet to sign his rookie contract. In past years rookies wouldn't work out until they had their rookie deal done but Poe's contract isn't a concern with the NFL's rookie wage scale.
Poe said there was "no doubt" he was going to be at the Chiefs offseason program, regardless of his contract.
"I'm here to play football, so I'm doing that side of it," Poe said, via comments sent out by the Chiefs. "I leave that up to pretty much the other people to do that, so I'm just doing what I'm here to do."
So what does Poe working out without a contract say about him?
"It says he wants to make the team," Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said. "That's what that says."
Pretty sure he's gonna make the team but Crennel didn't sound concerned at all about Poe's contract.
"They will get it done eventually because of the new structure in camp and things like that, but I think that he wants to learn the system and show what his abilities are so that when he does get assigned he can fall right into place."
