All signs point to Orlando Brown being the left tackle of the present — and future

While the Los Angeles Rams enjoy their champagne, Kansas City’s front office has work to do. Falling short of the ultimate goal, KC heads into the offseason with a litany of items on their to-do list.

Left tackle Orlando Brown’s future is principal among those items, according to general manager Brett Veach, who spoke at length about offensive lineman during his year-end address with local reporters.

“When you talk about a guy that does everything the right way, Orlando Brown’s in that category,” said the general manager in his season-closing statements.

Traded from Baltimore to Kansas City in the 2021 offseason, Brown not only became a full-time starting left tackle, but also did it well — starting 16 games and accruing just four penalties over 1,128 offensive snaps.
