Initial Kansas City Chiefs 53-man roster projections from first week of training camp
Let's take an early look at what the active roster could resemble before competition shakes things too much.
Chiefs Final 53-man Roster: Linebacker (5)
On the Team:
- Nick Bolton
- Willie Gay Jr.
- Drue Tranquill
- Leo Chenal
Official Camp Battle For One Spot:
- Jack Cochrane vs Cam Jones
Missing the Cut:
- Isaiah Moore
- Cole Christiansen
The top four linebackers will play almost all of the actual linebacker snaps if everyone is healthy. I think the final spot is for a special teams guy. Last season that was Jack Cochrane, but I really like the potential of undrafted rookie Cam Jones as well. That is a roster battle to watch in camp, not only who looks better playing linebacker, but who is getting more reps and standing out on special teams.
