Chiefs fans disagree with linebacker Willie Gay Jr.’s future prediction

The Kansas City Chiefs have proved themselves to be the team to beat this season. Under the tutelage of a seasoned professional like Andy Reid and with the likes of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce in their ranks, it is only expected of them to come this far.

However, some of the fringe players on the side might be feeling the heat as the postseason beckons. Players like Linebacker Wille Gay Jr. have already hinted at the fact that they might have played their last game at the Arrowhead.

Wiilie Gay Jr. predicts his Chiefs’ future

Willie Gay Jr. has been one of the shining lights for the Kansas City Chiefs this season. His performances throughout the regular season have been far better than what was expected of him, and he has made regular appearances in the starting lineup.

However, with the new season not so far away, the 25-year-old has begun to expect the worst from his current employers. According to the Arrowhead Addict, the storied franchise has already recruited other youngsters who are touted to be in starting positions starting next season.

In a cryptic tweet that he released tonight, Wille Gay Jr said, “It’s looking like Ive probably played my last game in arrowhead. Damn im going to miss that place. Nothing like it lets go get this Ring to end it the right way,” indicating faith in his teammates to bring home the Lombardi Trophy once again.

In a season where the Chiefs’ defense has been more potent than their offense, it will make for an interesting offseason episode if the Kansas front office decides to let one of their brightest stars walk out the door.

During his tenure with the Chiefs, Willie Gay has recorded 150 solo tackles, 83 assists, 5.0 sacks, 4 fumble recoveries and 4 interceptions in 57 games. He is already a Super Bowl Champion with the Kansas City-based franchise as he won Super Bowl LVII with the Chiefs.

Even the announcement of Willie Gay Jr’s impending departure generated a mixed response on his social media handles. With Chiefs’ faithful requesting him to stay and supporters of other franchises urging him to join their outfit next season.

One user commented, “Noooo!! So sad to see this tweet! You’re such a good influence on this team! Your personality, fun spirit, and positive energy around the team and fans is so infectious! Even if you go somewhere else, you gotta fan for life from me man!!,” while another commented, “You’ll be a Bronco soon.
