KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs on Monday evening released the third depth chart of the preseason ahead of Friday night’s game against the Tennessee Titans.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs appear to have dodged a bullet with Chiefs outside linebacker Dee Ford.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – The Chiefs wrapped up the heavy lifting of training camp on Wednesday morning, going through their final full practice at Missouri Western State University.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – Chiefs offensive lineman Jarrod Pughsley flew under the radar entering training camp, and it could be attributed to his low-key nature. “He’s a nice guy,” coach Andy Reid said. “He’s very soft-spoken.” Place the 6-4, 310-pound Pughsley on the football field, however, and a transformation occurs. “On the field, though, he’ll take care of business,” Reid …
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 …
