Alex helping Andy scout these QB'a and finding Mahomes wasn't just out of the kindness of his heart. I think Alex has had discussions with Andy that he isn't playing past his contract and the Chiefs need to go ahead and prepare for the future there.
It's very possible that Andy wasn't just drafting a QB bc of Alex's limits. Alex isn't going to go anywhere at 34-35 years old and start over again.
This is probably it for him.

And we aren't paying him $20 million to be a backup QB. He can stay for 2 years if he takes a PAY CUT for that 2nd year. Not a restructure.....not an extension.....a ****ing pay cut. And a significant one at that. He can make $8 million dollars to watch Mahomes lead us to victory. Maybe he'll get a ring out of it.
