Examining Justyn Ross’ journey to the NFL — and his outlook for 2023

It might be that no recent Kansas City Chiefs player has entered training camp with more hype than wide receiver Justyn Ross. During practices at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, the undrafted free agent has shown flashes of excellence — and is making a strong case to make the opening day roster.

Background

Ross had outstanding freshman and sophomore seasons at Clemson, collecting 112 receptions for 1,865 yards and 17 touchdowns.
