3. Kansas City Chiefs

The reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs have Patrick Mahomes under center. Mahomes is the best quarterback in the league and just secured his third Super Bowl in 2023. The combination of Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid is unbelievable.

Zach Wilson being able to learn from these two could tremendously change the trajectory of his career. Mahomes is the guy and won't be going anywhere anytime soon. That is perfect for Wilson because he needs to sit behind someone with no expectation of playing right now.

The knowledge from Mahomes and Reid would allow Wilson to improve on his footwork and accuracy while watching the game from the sideline.

Backup quarterback Blaine Gabbert is scheduled to be a free agent and the Chiefs could be in the market for another arm. The Chiefs own a fifth-round pick (No. 158 overall) and a seventh-round pick (No. 250 overall) in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Kansas City has the assets to take a flier on the 24-year-old quarterback.
