DL Breeland Speaks

After being the Chiefs’ top pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, Speaks has struggled to find a role in the defense. The defensive end was unable to get much playing time his rookie year, playing out of position as an outside linebacker. He was finally moved back to his natural position, playing hand-in-the-dirt defensive lineman in 2019, but was injured in the preseason, missing the entire 2019 season and Super Bowl run. If Speaks continues to struggle to get on the field, especially early in training camp, he could be cut before the start of the season and remembered as a bust.
