Kansas City Chiefs fans will love what AI is predicting happens with biggest AFC West rivals’ rookie

The Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders have one of the oldest rivalries in the NFL, and one that has some of the biggest hatred filled moments in the history of the league, too.

And while those statements are true, they somehow have shared some of the same players throughout those players careers, for instance, Marcus Allen, who is the Raiders' best running back of all time. The Hall of Famer has the most rushing yards in the history of the Raiders franchise, with a gap between the second most, that's almost three thousand yards. Allen also has the most touchdowns in Raiders history, with 79.

But some forget that he also played for the Chiefs.

Allen had a falling out with Al Davis, the Raiders' previous owner, and Mark Davis' father, and he really wanted to go to a team that was going to use him and value him, but also pay him a pretty penny. So, he went to the Chiefs, where he played for five years. That hurt a lot of Raiders fans at that time. But, nonetheless, he put together a great 16-year career, which, as a running back, is great.

Allen isn't considered the greatest Chiefs RB of all time, or even in the top three, but he did spend some significant time with the franchise. Now the Raiders have Ashton Jeanty, who they drafted sixth overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. He's supposed to be pretty good, and the Chiefs could find that out soon enough on the field, playing him two times a year.

BetMGM posted a graphic of AI predicting Jeanty's career, and the stats are pretty great. But, the teams he plays for are what will get some Raiders fans upset, almost replicating something similar to what Marcus Allen did.

Jeanty finishes his NFL career with 12,500 rushing yards, 90 rushing touchdowns, and 4.8 yards per carry for his career. He finished with one Offensive Rookie of the Year award, five Pro Bowls, three first-team All-Pros, one Offensive Player of the Year, and one Super Bowl win, but it doesn't say who that Super Bowl win is with.

AI has Jeanty playing with the Raiders from 2025-2029, meaning the Raiders would not re-sign him after his rookie deal is up. He would then play for the Kansas City Chiefs from 2030-2032, and then the Dallas Cowboys from 2033-2034.

The Cowboys certainly make sense as he is from the Dallas area, and has said before that he would love to have been drafted by them. And, given the time frame, it feels like that one Super Bowl win he got was with the Chiefs. I mean, they are the only team out of those three that has won anything recently.

That would have Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes getting one of the best college football running backs ever, and a guy who nearly broke all of Barry Sanders' records. And really, Mahomes has never had anything like that. He has had a few guys that were drafted on Day 3 of the NFL Draft, outside of Clyde Edwards-Helaire, who spent a ton of time injured, which isn't his fault.

And nothing guarentees that Jeanty is good in 2030, but it certainly feels like he will be five years from now. And just him leaving the Raiders to join Mahomes and the Chiefs is enough to make them, and certainly the fan base, happy.
