Wide receiver Richie James is settling in well in the Kansas City Chiefs offense and has quickly become a reliable target for the team’s quarterbacks. His standout performance in the Chiefs’ first preseason game against the New Orleans Saints gave fans a taste of what he might be able to do in the regular season and wasn’t only notable for his impressive stat line.
As it turns out, James was wearing a microphone during the matchup and revealed himself to be quite the character during interactions with his teammates during the game.

While the outcome of the tilt wasn’t exactly what the Chiefs were hoping for, the hilarity of James’ mic’d up appearance was worth something for fans who were distraught after Kansas City’s last-minute defeat in the Big Easy.
If he can continue providing excellent content like this, James will become a fan-favorite early in his career with the Chiefs.
