Podcast: Catching up with former Chiefs wide receiver JJ Birden
By Matt Conner
Former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver stopped by the Arrowhead Addict podcast as our special guest to talk about his playing days and the current roster.
JJ Birden knows a thing or two about this time of year.
As Kansas City Chiefs players are preparing to head to training camp in a couple of weeks after a long offseason, the stage is set for serious competition at most positions. The team-wide goal has been established for years now with a wide-open Super Bowl window. Now it’s all about coming together amidst a semi-youth movement in order to usher in the second phase of the Patrick Mahomes era.
Birden, a former Chiefs wide receiver, went through several cycles of the NFL calendar in his nine-year career. He spent five seasons at Arrowhead playing under Marty Schottenheimer and catching passes from Steve DeBerg and Joe Montana. These days, he’s a family man with eight children and thriving personal business ventures who still keeps tabs on Chiefs Kingdom.
On the latest episode of the Arrowhead Addict podcast, we sat down with Birden to tell us more about what he’s up to these days and what he thinks of the Chiefs’ offseason moves.
