Ukeme Eligwe, inside linebacker
With Reggie Ragland nursing a knee injury, Eligwe is next man up, and it looks like the Chiefs haven’t missed a beat. Eligwe played 65 snaps on defense and 211 on special teams as a rookie last season. He could be in store for more action with plays like his interception on Sunday and other pass breakups during drills.
“He’s done a really good job,” defensive coordinator Bob Sutton said.
