Decades from now — when younger football fans pore through the Kansas City Chiefs’ statistical records for the last few seasons — Marcus Kemp’s name isn’t likely to jump out at them.
Over the four years since he joined the team as an undrafted free agent out of Hawaii in 2017, he’s appeared in 27 games — starting none of them. During his Kansas City career, the wide receiver has been targeted with just three passes, catching two of them for a total of 18 yards.
