If you check out the Twitter accounts of various Kansas City Chiefs players, you get the sense that they are as excited as the fans to see football return in some form or another to Arrowhead Stadium. The next ten weeks will be the first time for many of these players to officially wear the Chiefs colors and meet their teammates. For others, it will be a chance to return to give progress on their rehab. For last year's draftees, it's a chance to have a full offseason with the team.
Here's Eric Winston on his return:
Eventhough I'm in a 2 hour delay I'm coming KC. The fun starts tomorrow. Looking forward to meeting the guys and starting something special.

Then of course, some players realize coming back to Kansas City may not feel like the vacation spots they've become accustomed to. Check Brandon Flowers' account:
