Kansas City Chiefs roster cuts: Gavin Escobar, Marcus Kemp among players released

Here’s your home for all roster cuts news from the Kansas City Chiefs, including some early surprises like Marcus Kemp and Gavin Escobar.

The Chiefs will be able to keep a handful of these same players on the active roster but there’s no way to guarantee they’ll be available and not claimed by another team. Therein lies the risk for the Chiefs in making such decisions.
