Ha.. Some thought he would start the SB...

Rankin looked ok until Cam injured Schwartz which tore up Rankin's knee on the first play at RT.

He didn't show up for offseason workouts or minicamps, making it pretty apparent that regardless of his skillset, the dude quit.

In 2019, he started next to Cam Erving for 5 games before tearing his pec while the Chiefs scored 24, 30, 24, 26 and 32 before being placed on IR.

But the bottom line is that the guy must not have loved football because he'd still be on the team if he did, especially over guys like Wylie and all of the other scrubs.

The talent was there...something must be up with the recovery.

I still think that would have been the best move.

They should have kept their line intact and given Rankin help instead of flipping Remmers, who was destroyed by Denver in the 2016 Super Bowl, and sliding all of the guys, save for Reiter, down a slot.

I don't know if that would have been enough to make them competitive but at least 4 guys would have been at their same positions as they'd been for most of the season.

No surprise he was waved. He just could never recover from the injury. That he made it this long without any production just proves the dire straight our o-line has been in before Veach moved on it.

Or just the desire to play in the NFL.

I've said it time and time again but some guys play in the NFL because they genuinely love the game and others play in the NFL because they can.

I think Rankin was one of the latter.

When he didn't show up for the mini-camp, I was pretty sure he was history. You can say injuries had a lot to do with it, but I agree with Dane that he just didn't have the desire.

I can understand not loving the game. And if you have other options then fine. But man, check back with that guy a few months into having a real job.

Eh, if he was smart with his money, he should be a millionaire. If he's still smart with his money, he could get any job doing anything and be OK.

If he's smart.

Zero ****s given.

Well thats something.

I don't see him as any great loss. The Chiefs signed Wyatt Miller and still have Prince whatever on the roster. There will be plenty of camp cuts and guys trying to make a comeback to pick from.

YOU WILL ADRESS PRINCE TEGO WANOGHO CORRECTLY HE IS IN FACT ROYALTY

edit: I just found out that if i name my grandfather king of his small village in Northern Michigan, I also will be a prince.

Is Prince Tega Wanogho a real prince?
Wanogho started all 13 games in 2018 at left tackle. He was named a second-team All-SEC pick for his play in 12 starts at left tackle during his senior campaign. Received medical flag at Senior Bowl. Prince is, in fact, a prince in the real sense of the word, as his grandfather was the king of a village.

Exactly, and it was well documented. J.J. Watt actually called him out about it during a couple training camps.
