In the 2025 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs will be looking to add defensive line talent — and on Day 2, they could be considering Kentucky defensive tackle Deone Walker.

Background

A four-star college recruit out of Detroit’s Cass Technical, Walker chose Kentucky after receiving offers from 30 schools across the country. With the Wildcats, he started 35 of 36 games over three seasons, collecting 132 tackles (53 solo, 23 for loss), 10 sacks, six passes defensed and a forced fumble.

Checking into the NFL Combine at 6 feet 7 and 331 pounds, this enormous man was measured with 34 1/2-inch arms and 10 5/8-inch hands.
