Chiefs re-sign DE Azur Kamara to practice squad

The #Chiefs brought back a familiar face to fill their final spot on the practice squad.

The Kansas City Chiefs have filled their final open spot on the practice squad ahead of Week 9.

According to the NFL’s personnel notice for Tuesday, the Chiefs re-signed DE Azur Kamara on the practice squad. The former Kansas Jayhawk was a late addition to the 90-man roster this past offseason, signing with the team just before the start of training camp. He stuck with the team through training camp and the preseason, recording four total tackles, one sack and one pass batted in three preseason games.

Kamara was waived during 53-man roster cuts, but he signed to the team’s initial 16-man practice squad. Just five days later he was waived from the practice squad to make room for former Cardinals S James Wiggens. Kamara hasn’t been with any teams since his release from the practice squad, but he did try out for the Denver Broncos on October 22nd.

Kamara’s return to Kansas City comes as the team finds itself without DE Frank Clark for two weeks as he serves a two-game suspension.
