Wonder why the Chiefs traded him? He seems like he could be awesome to hang onto if im the Chiefs. Its not like we gave them much anyhow. For that trade equity, I would have just kept him. Good for us but cant understand why they would swap him out for virtually nothing.

They were clearly planning to cut him so something > nothing.

They were going to have to cut him, so it’s better to get picks for him now than watch him walk.

If I had to guess, this move probably spells the end for Shi Smith and Blackshear on the roster. 

Spencer Brown looked great this pre-season but there was no way we were carrying 4 RBs. Blackshear was a lock for RB3 since he was KR/PR, but now this moves paves the way for Brown to make the roster.

Is this confirmation that Chark is going to be out a while?

I think that it's more of a confirmation that we wanted a speed guy to spread defenses. That was why we brought in Byrd to begin with, but he's out for the season (at least). So, we found a newer, less proven version.

Because the team DC has him as "Nickel CB".

He will remain at safety for me, and play Nickel as needed. 

He's gonna be multiple for us.

Chiefs fans are saying he was going to be cut if they didn't trade him because they're loaded at WR.

Yeah, the Chiefs have a decent WR room but are far from 'loaded'. However, Kelce and the Mahomes factor compensate for that.
