The most recent video features the Chiefs quarterbacks practicing their passing accuracy and a cameo from tight end Travis Kelce.

Linebacker Willie Gay Jr. blocks quarterback Patrick Mahomes pass to wide receiver Demarcus Robinson during practice on Wednesday.

1:55 p.m. | Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has built quite a resume heading into his fifth year in the league.

During Wednesday's practice, Mahomes got some practice with his signature no-look pass, connecting with running back Tyreek Hill.

1:25 p.m. | Today was Orlando Brown's first practice with the Kansas City Chiefs after the team traded their 2021 first round draft pick with the Baltimore Ravens for him.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid and fellow players, safety Tyrann Mathieu and offensive guard Joe Thuney, spoke to reporters on Wednesday about their new teammate.

"He loves the game," Reid said. "He's willing to work."

The new left tackle spent the offseason watching tapes and learning the position.

Fellow offensive-line member, Thuney, said it was great practicing next to Brown on Wednesday, and it has been great playing with him. Mathieu said most of his interactions with Brown was giving him advice on where to live in Kansas City.

"I can't stand next to him for too long because he's way bigger than me," Mathieu joked.

12:50 p.m. | Kansas City Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt said Wednesday he's hopeful the team will be able to host fans at full capacity at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium this season.

"We are planning to have 100% capacity at GEHA Field," Hunt said but explained that the process of deciding stadium capacity is dynamic, and the Chiefs will work with the health department.

The two players are running back Darwin Thompson and long snapper James Winchester.

Tyrann Mathieu and Joe Thuney also spoke at the training camp news conference.

11:04 a.m. | It looks like KC Wolf forgot about Chiefs training camp.

10:06 a.m. | Team chemistry is emerging at practice. KSHB 41 Sports Director Mick Shaffer has his eyes on team dynamics. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw to Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce in scrimmages Wednesday.

9:45 a.m. | Frank Clark arrived to the practice field on Wednesday morning for the first full-team practice.

Clark was charged with one felony count of possession of an assault weapon in Los Angeles, California, after he was arrested in March on suspicion of possessing an assault weapon.

Also, Clark was arrested again in June for a similar incident when officers during a routine traffic stop noticed an uzi inside his car. Charges have not been filed in that case.

Coach Andy Reid said last week that Clark would be attending training camp.

9:30 a.m. | The first practice with the full team is only open to season ticket holders, but Thursday's practice will be open to the general public who purchase tickets in advance.

The Chiefs quarterback smashed the record for the all-time highest paid for an NFL card. His autographed rookie card sold for $4.3 million, and it broke a previous record set by Tom Brady's rookie card that sold for $3.1 million.

7:15 a.m. | In Madden news, Travis Kelce has returned to the 99 club for the second time.

Kelce received the near perfect rating of 99 in Madden NFL 22, which is based on his real-life performance in the NFL. Kelce previously received a 99 rating in Madden NFL 21 last December.

Mahomes received the 99 rating last year, and Kelce presented the quarterback with a diamond "99" pendant while the two were in Lake Tahoe playing in the American Century Championship.

Kelce's teammate Tyreek Hill received a 98 rating, but Mahomes has a message for Madden:

7:10 a.m. | The first official day of Chiefs training camp kicked off Wednesday morning.

The full team will report, but only season ticket holders can attend to watch.
