WR Jody Fortson
Fortson was one of the more impressive undrafted free agents from the Chiefs’ 2019 class. He really stood out during the final preseason game against Green Bay Packers, where he caught two passes for 38 yards and a touchdown. He also forced a fumble on special teams. The team seems to like his size and ability to box out defensive backs. In fact, he offers a skill set that is very different from what they already have on the roster at the receiver position.
Kansas City will always need receiver depth with their high-powered offense. With players like Sammy Watkins and Demarcus Robinson set to become free agents in 2021, the Chiefs need to find a low-cost solution for the future. If Fortson can make a big jump in his second year with the team, he could potentially provide a solution to those departing free agents.
