KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- When general manager Brett Veach focuses the resources of the Kansas City Chiefs on improving a particular area, he tends to get the job done. Veach basically tore down the Chiefs on defense in 2019 and they emerged with seven new starters. Many played a significant role as the Chiefs won the Super Bowl for the first time in 50 years.
Last year, the Chiefs needed to upgrade a decaying offensive line that collapsed in the Chiefs' appearance in Super Bowl LV. The Chiefs began the 2021 season with five new offensive line starters.
