The Kansas City Chiefs have added a new tight end prospect to the team’s practice squad with the announced signing of Deon Yelder, a rookie free agent out of Western Kentucky University.
The Chiefs made room for Yelder by releasing safety Leon McQuay from the practice squad. It’s been a very disappointing year for McQuay who was the team’s sixth round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft under John Dorsey. McQuay was an intelligent and versatile defensive back utilized all over the secondary at the Southern California and the Chiefs had hopes for the same at the pro level.
