Initial Kansas City Chiefs 53-man roster projections from first week of training camp
Chiefs Final 53-man Roster: Specialists (3)
On the Team:
- Harrison Butker
- Tommy Townsend
- James Winchester
There really isn't anything to discuss or debate here. Barring a camp injury, these three fill out the final three roster spots and bring our total number to 53.
Final Roster Thoughts:
As we look over the entire roster, I think that most of the spots are pretty set. There could be more battles for playing time/roles, especially in the wide receivers, but in terms of making the team I think these are the biggest battles to watch in camp.
- Clyde Edwards-Helaire vs Deneric Prince for the final RB spot
- Justyn Ross vs keeping a 3rd quarteback (Shane Buechele)
- Final Defensive Line Spot: FA defensive tackle vs FA defensive end vs someone on the roster
- Deon Bush vs Nazeeh Jonhson vs Nic Jones for the final two DB spots
- Jack Cochrane vs Cam Jones for the final LB spot
So what do you think Chiefs fans? Do you think this is a fair evaluation of what roster spots are up for grabs? Do you think more wideouts or offensive lineman are in the mix than I do? Do I have the correct number of players that the Chiefs will keep at each position? I'd love to read your thoughts in the comments below.
