KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- As the Chiefs recovered from their Super Bowl LIX loss and started to build their roster for 2025, they found options for their most glaring positional need -- left tackle -- weren't particularly satisfying.
The Chiefs have been here before. Since releasing long-time starter Eric Fisher after the 2020 season, they have tried a trade, free agency and the draft to solve the left tackle problem. They have gone through six starters in the four years without Fisher, including four in 2024.
Their inability to find a long-term solution has been frustrating to general manager Brett Veach and coach Andy Reid.
