The Kansas City Chiefs selected safety Jaden Hicks in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Hicks will join the Chiefs from Washington State, where he was a two-year starter and earned numerous accolades in his short stint in Pullman.
Hicks will join a Chiefs secondary that was regarded as one of the best in the NFL during the 2023 season and played a major role in the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl. The Chiefs traded away star cornerback L’Jarius Sneed and also saw the departure of Mike Edwards in the offseason, so there will be chances for Hicks to find the field in 2024.
