ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – The offensive linemen who start for the Kansas City Chiefs in the team’s third preseason game Aug. 28 will likely be the ones who start the regular season opener, offensive coordinator Doug Pederson said Tuesday. “By the time you get to your third week where your starters are playing a lot, three quarters, you should have that …
Here is an updated projection of the Chiefs’ 53-man roster based on 11 full-team training camp practices and one preseason game under the team’s belt. • QUARTERBACKS (3): Alex Smith, Chase Daniel, Aaron Murray OVERVIEW: The three quarterbacks should be in place at this point.
