KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Chiefs held an annual local Pro Day workout Friday at the team’s training facility in advance of the NFL Draft.
NFL teams are allowed to bring in draft prospects who are from the metropolitan area for a workout, in accordance with NFL rules. These players do not count against the 30 pre-draft visits teams are allocated.
The team’s website quotes Chiefs general manager John Dorsey as stating “16 to 20” players were present. Local media was not in attendance to report on the workout.
While the Chiefs didn’t publish a list of participants, the following players are confirmed by ChiefsDigest.com as attending:
• Kansas State defensive end/outside linebacker Ryan Mueller, according to two sources and as previously reported weeks before the local Pro Day event. Mueller is from Leawood, Kan.
• Pittsburg State cornerback DeVante Bausby, according to a source and first tweeted on April 7. Bausby is from Kansas City.
• Pittsburg State safety Keeston Terry, according to a source. Terry, who spent two seasons at Kansas before transferring, is from Blue Springs, Mo.
• Missouri punter Christian Brinser, according to a source. Brinser, a native of Liberty, Mo., earlier took to Twitter to announce his participation.
UPDATE, April 14: The following nine players are added to the list and confirmed as attending, according to sources:
• Jacksonville State quarterback Max Shortell, a native of Kansas City.
• Kansas wide receiver Justin McCay, a native of Kansas City.
