Path to the NFL
A standout 2024 season at Idaho State helped move Weimer from a junior-college route to West Virginia and professional football.
Weimer’s path included Hartnell, City College of San Francisco, UNLV, Idaho State and West Virginia. His Idaho State season produced 75 receptions and 1,016 yards, the clearest statistical bridge in the research between his earlier college stops and Power Four football.
Kansas City signed him on August 3, 2026, identifying him as a rookie free agent. The research does not establish that he was selected in the 2026 NFL Draft, so no draft round or overall pick is assigned.

NFL Career
Weimer’s 2026 professional history includes Kansas City training-camp and preseason work followed by an August waiver.
Kansas City used Weimer as a wide receiver during training camp and the preseason. Chiefs coverage described diving receptions during early camp work, and team photographs showed him wearing jersey No. 5 during the 2026 preseason.
The Chiefs waived Weimer on August 30, 2026, during their roster reduction before the regular season. Their September 2 practice-squad announcement did not list him. The latest dated professional transaction in the research is therefore the August 30 waiver.

At City College of San Francisco in 2021, Weimer contributed to a 13–0 CCCAA state championship team and led the conference with 75 receptions, 1,253 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns.

Playing Style
Weimer’s college production reflects a high-volume receiving role with repeated evidence of downfield impact and big-play capability.
He led his junior-college conference in receptions and later surpassed 1,000 yards at Idaho State. His listed averages included 16.7 yards per catch at City College of San Francisco and 13.5 at Idaho State.
Big plays included an 84-yard touchdown at Idaho State and a 75-yard touchdown at West Virginia, while his Idaho State performance against Cal Poly produced 236 receiving yards. Chiefs training-camp coverage also attributed diving and contested receptions to him, but the research does not establish a regular-season NFL role or a verified secondary position.

Legacy
Weimer’s college significance centers on a long development path from Salinas and California junior colleges to three four-year programs.
His progression from local football through Hartnell and City College of San Francisco to UNLV, Idaho State and West Virginia illustrates a transfer-driven college career. The 2021 CCCAA championship and his 2024 1,016-yard Idaho State season mark important points in that progression.
His Idaho State season also placed him among the program’s ninth group of 1,000-yard receivers, giving that year a specific place in the school’s receiving history.
