The Kansas City Chiefs selected Michigan DE Mike Danna with their fifth-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. He will add depth to a Chiefs defensive line after the departure of Emmanuel Ogbah and presumed departure of current free agent Terrell Suggs.
Here are three things to know about the Kansas City Chiefs’ newest defensive end:
Danna spent three seasons playing at Central Michigan
Before transferring to Michigan during his senior season, Danna spent three seasons playing for Central Michigan. During that time, he accumulated 151 total tackles, 27.5 tackles for loss, and 15 sacks. He wouldn’t become a premier player for the Wolverines, only accumulating 38 tackles, three tackles for loss and three sacks. Perhaps coach Jim Harbaugh used Danna wrong and Chiefs defensive line coach Brendan Daly see’s a path to more production in the NFL?
