According to the NFL transactions report, the Kansas City Chiefs have brought former Mississippi State defensive tackle Braxton Hoyett back into the fold, filling the hole in the team’s 80-man roster that was created when rookie offensive lineman Lucas Niang opted out of the 2020 season on Thursday.
Hoyett, 24, is listed at 6-feet-2 and 302 pounds. A native of Pelham, Alabama, he first entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent for the Tennessee Titans in 2019, but was cut by the Titans at the end of training camp.
