9. Former S Tyrann Mathieu
The Chiefs defense needed a culture and production shift after a 2018 campaign in which the unit surrendered 26.3 points per game, 24th in the NFL. Kansas City signed Tyrann Mathieu to a three-year, $42 million extension in 2019, and won Super Bowl LIV that season with him earning a First Team All-Pro selection. Mathieu earned another All-Pro nod and a Pro Bowl selection in 2020 as well as a Pro Bowl accolade in 2021.
