There’s Patrick Mahomes and then a vacuum.
One look at the Kansas City Chiefs depth chart shows tremendous promise atop the quarterback section, perhaps the most exciting young quarterback in team history. Unfortunately from there, there’s literally not a single player. No Alex Smith, of course. No Tyler Bray, for now.
Even Joel Stave is nowhere to be found. (He’s with the New York Jets.)
There’s no reason to panic at this point because we all know that plenty of roster construction will continue to happen in the days, weeks and even months ahead. There are bigger fish to fry for now (turn to pages labeled “defensive line” and “safety”), but that doesn’t mean that the lack of depth on the depth chart isn’t a bit concerning.
