The Chiefs added depth at tight end Friday, signing veteran Gavin Escobar to their roster.
Escobar, a second-round pick of the Dallas Cowboys in 2013, is 26-year old who caught four passes for 30 yards and a touchdown in 16 games in 2016 behind star Jason Witten.
The 6-foot-6, 260-pounder reached career highs with nine receptions and 134 yards as a rookie in 2013. He was one of the best testers at his position at the 2013 combine, running a 4.84-second 40-yard dash.
Escobar adds veteran depth to the position after Travis Kelce had shoulder surgery in the offseason and could miss parts of organized team activities.
