• Packers' Mecole Hardman: Signing with Packers

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  The Packers signed Hardman (knee) to a one-year deal Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Hardman will head to Green Bay after catching 12 passes for 90 yards and carrying the ball five times for an additional 62 yards and a touchdown in 12 games for Kansas City last season. He suffered a knee injury in December that landed him on injured reserve but can contribute on both offense and as a kick returner when healthy.

• Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Finishing season on IR

  01/22/2025 • By RotoWire

  Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that Hardman (knee) will not be activated from injured reserve, ruling him out for a return during the playoffs, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports. Hardman's 21-day practice window thus comes to a close without him being activated in advance of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Bills, or a potential Super Bowl appearance should Kansas City advance past Buffalo. He appeared in 12 games with the Chiefs during the regular season, securing 12 of 14 targets for 90 yards, rushing five times for 62 yards and a score and playing a key role in the return game. Hardman is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

• Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Uncertain for Sunday's game

  01/20/2025 • By RotoWire

  Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said "we'll see how that goes" when asked Monday about Hardman (knee) coming off IR in time for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Bills, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports. "I haven't made any decisions on that yet," Reid said. "[Hardman has] worked hard to try and get himself back." The return specialist and depth wideout had his 21-day practice window opened Jan. 1, but he's yet to upgrade beyond limited on-field activity. If Kansas City doesn't activate Hardman before his practice window closes, he will have to remain on IR for the rest of the playoffs, including if the Chiefs advance beyond Sunday's home AFC Championship Game against Buffalo.

• Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Won't return in divisional round

  01/17/2025 • By RotoWire

  Hardman (knee), who remains on injured reserve, has been ruled out for Saturday's divisional-round contest against the Texans. The Chiefs designated Hardman for return from injured reserve on Jan. 1, but the wide receiver has yet to progress beyond a limited listing on six ensuing Chiefs injury reports. His window in which to get back on the active roster for the first time since Week 13 also is quickly coming to a close. First, though, Kansas City will need to emerge victorious Saturday in order for Hardman to have a chance to play again this season.

• Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Unlikely to face Houston

  01/16/2025 • By RotoWire

  Hardman (knee) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Texans. Hardman was placed on injured reserve Dec. 7 due to a knee injury, and it doesn't appear likely that he will be activated from IR ahead of Saturday's playoff bout. If the Chiefs beat the Texans, then Hardman would have an opportunity to be activated from IR for the AFC Championship Game.
