With head coach Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs choosing not to select a wide receiver in this year’s NFL Draft, Gehrig Dieter sees an opportunity to not only crack the 53-man roster bust also become a valuable contributor. An undrafted free agent from the University of Alabama after the 2016 season, the Indiana native brings size, speed, reliable hands, route running, special teams and an overall toughness to the Chiefs that it needs moving forward with a young team.
According to B.J. Kissel, a reporter for Chiefs.com, Dieter was one of five players (three receivers) attending the first week of rookie minicamp.
