One of the NFL‘s most anticipated events of the year is just days away. The 2025 NFL Draft, set to take place in Green Bay, Wisconsin, will see the Kansas City Chiefs make pivotal selections aimed at returning them to the Super Bowl and erasing the sting of their recent loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

While Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and the Chiefs have several roster needs to address, adding an explosive offensive weapon could be a game-changer.

Fans demand another Texas Tech legend

Speculation exploded after the Kansas City Chiefs posted a photo of their superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes, highlighting his Texas Tech roots. Fans quickly connected the dots, clamoring for the team to draft Tahj Brooks, a standout running back prospect from the same Texas Tech program.

Brooks left an indelible mark at Texas Tech, cementing his place as one of the program’s greatest running backs. In 2024, he became the school’s all-time leading rusher. The Texas native etched his name in the record books, finishing his college career with 4,557 rushing yards over 56 games.

He is the only Texas Tech running back to record multiple seasons with over 1,500 rushing yards (1,538 in 2023 and 1,505 in 2024). Brooks also holds a program record with 23 games of 100+ rushing yards, including 19 in his final two seasons.

Projected as a third- to fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Brooks represents a potential steal for any team. Given the Chiefs’ history of uncovering gems, it’s not hard to imagine them targeting Brooks to bolster their offense alongside Mahomes.
