Though Godrick hasn't yet gotten a chance to put his talent on display with the Chiefs during the regular season, fans should expect to see more of him this summer when Kansas City's offseason workouts begin.
Stay tuned to see if Godrick, with the support of his beloved mother, can rise to the occasion over the next few months to earn a spot on the Chiefs' 53-man roster in 2025.
