All of a sudden, there are openings in the Kansas City Chiefs' wide receiver depth chart.
Rashee Rice is facing a suspension, and Justyn Ross has been waived.
Who is going to fill the back part of the roster?
Enter Elijhah Badger, who runs a 4.43-second 40-yard dash. SI's Dominic Minchella had this to say about Badger in an article on Thursday:
"With training camp right around the corner for the Chiefs, Badger has the chance to show his coaches what he can provide to the team, as he fights for a spot on the 53-man roster. Through 12 games and nine starts with the Gators last season, Badger led the team with 806 receiving yards in 39 receptions and scored four receiving touchdowns."

You can't really go wrong with a guy named Badger, can you?
His climb will still be uphill as an undrafted player, but the door has been opened a tad.
Now, Badger just has to surge his way through.
