Wide receiver (5):

Depth Player
1 Tyreek Hill
2 Sammy Watkins
3 Mecole Hardman
4 Demarcus Robinson
5 Byron Pringle

Last go around, I had undrafted receiver Maurice Ffrench making the roster. He was my roster casualty with the addition of Matt Moore. This wasn’t a tough decision to make because as I mentioned in our introduction, the Chiefs will have the ability to elevate two players from the practice squad on game day. It’s possible that the NFL allows even more players to be elevated when they finalize coronavirus protocols.

I think Byron Pringle is someone who can play return specialist alongside Mecole Hardman if they’re facing a week where they don’t elevate a player who can play that position. At the end of the day, it was this group of five that got Kansas City to the finish line in 2019.
