Just a week has passed since the conclusion of the 2023 season, and the Kansas City Chiefs successfully defended their title in the Big Game. The entire year was nothing short of a roller-coaster ride — from Aaron Rodgers’ season-ending Achilles tear on his debut to Joe Flacco’s absolute dominance of a comeback, and even the remarkable strides of rookies CJ Stroud and Brock Purdy leading into the playoffs. Now, as the offseason officially begins, fans will miss the NFL action for the next six months. However, preparations for the 2024 season will start soon, with the NFL Combine set to begin next week.
