Defensive Line

Frank Clark
Chris Jones
Derrick Nnadi
Alex Okafor
Tanoh Kpassagnon
Breeland Speaks
Emmanuel Ogbah
Khalen Saunders

Steve Spagnuolo has brought a new 4-man front to Kansas City and that has meant a massive change in the bodies on the edge. Out are Dee Ford and Justin Houston and replacing them are Frank Clark and Ogbah. Clark, especially, should be able to wreak havoc in the new defense. And just think of Jones rushing the pass rusher from inside at defensive tackle is scary. Nnadi and Saunders are two run-stuffing tackles who will rotate a lot. Speaks is a versatile player who can play inside or outside while Kpassagnon is a raw pass rusher who the Chiefs hope will finally realize his athletic potential in the new scheme.

Player to watch: Joey Ivie IV
