Chiefs vs. Raiders: Chiefs DB Tyvon Branch To Play First Game Against Former Team

For Kansas City Chiefs defensive back Tyvon Branch, Sunday’s game is like a family reunion—only the two sides of his “family” are historic AFC West rivals.

Branch came to play for the Chiefs after spending seven seasons with the Oakland Raiders.

He was drafted in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft by Oakland.

From 2008 to 2014, Branch racked up 461 tackles (355 solo), 25 tackles for loss, 8.0 sacks for 83 yards lost, 12 quarterback pressures, 3 forced fumbles and 4 fumble recoveries on top of 4 career interceptions.
