The Kansas City Chiefs have now established their initial 53-man roster for 2021 . The next step is to create their practice squad for the coming season. Under special rules extended from 2020, they can sign up to 16 players — including up to six veterans with any amount of experience — who will be able to participate in the team’s practices. They may also be activated to the active roster — or elevated to the roster for individual games.
