A bit of news flew under-the-radar that the Kansas City Chiefs brought in cornerback DeAndre Elliott for a free agent visit in recent days.
Elliott spent this past regular season waiting for a chance that never came, but he has been with the Seattle Seahawks since 2016 before being released last July, the same time that Pete Carroll and company decided to wash their hands of defensive lineman Malik McDowell.
Elliott joined Seattle as an undrafted free agent in 2016, and he made an immediate impression on the coaching staff. He was given playing time in 13 games on special teams, but any chance to build on that foundation was lost the next preseason when a leg injury forced him to spend the entire season on injured reserve.
