Way-too-early 53-man roster projection for Chiefs

It’s early, but let’s try and predict the 53-man roster in Kansas City for the 2020 season.

The Kansas City Chiefs have wrapped up the 2020 NFL Draft and are already in the process of filling out the 90-man roster with some undrafted free agents.

Ahead of the 2020 NFL season, the Chiefs will be asked to trim their roster to 53 players. While they can carry 55 players on game day, the remaining two players will have to be elevated from the practice squad. The next several months will tell the tale of who makes the squad, as players get prepared for 2020 with virtual offseason work.
With that in mind, here are our way-too-early projections for the 53-man roster in Kansas City:

Quarterback (2):

Depth Player
1 Patrick Mahomes
2 Chad Henne

I really wanted to keep Jordan Ta’amu, but the reality of the situation is that Henne’s contract basically guarantees he’ll be the No. 2 QB. The best bet for Ta’amu is to outperform Kyle Shurmur and end up on the practice squad in Kansas City.
