Here’s a position-by-position analysis of the Chiefs’ current 53-man roster, following the flurry of roster moves they made to get down to the limit before Saturday’s deadline.
Quarterbacks (3): Chase Daniel, Aaron Murray, Alex Smith.
No surprises here. Smith is the starter, Daniel is the backup, and Murray is the developmental No. 3 QB. Tyler Bray, who was placed on the non-football injury list earlier this week, will also have another year to sit and learn the offense. He recently signed a two-year extension through 2017.
Running backs (4): Jamaal Charles, Knile Davis, Anthony Sherman, Charcandrick West.
