Usually when a team changes a player’s position, his chances of making the roster are slim. RB (4): Damien Williams, Darwin Thompson, Darrel Williams, Tremon SmithĪs the preseason went on, it became obvious that Carlos Hyde was not going to make the Chiefs’ roster, so it was good for general manager Brett Veach to find a trade partner. Now that he is on the roster at the beginning of the season, he would be eligible to be one of two players the Chiefs could bring back from IR. Henne will likely be headed to injured reserve in the coming days. The Chiefs needed to keep Henne on the initial 53-man roster despite his ankle surgery so that they could bring him back later in the season. QB (3): Patrick Mahomes, Matt Moore, Chad Henne Here is the Chiefs’ 53-man roster to begin 2019: Brett Veach mentioned in his post-cut conference call that because of the roster moves needed with the Henne situation (see below), Allen could be back. The team might have come to that decision after landing Martinas Rankin - who provides offensive line depth - in the trade with Houston. The biggest surprise cut of the day was Jeff Allen, who the Chiefs brought back a little more than a week ago. The Chiefs made two trades-running back Carlos Hyde to the Texans for offensive lineman Martinas Rankin and cornerback Mark Fields to the Vikings for a conditional seventh-rounder. To do so, they kept three quarterbacks, five running backs (including fullback Anthony Sherman), five wide receivers, three tight ends, nine offensive linemen, 10 defensive linemen, six linebackers, nine defensive backs and three specialists. The Kansas City Chiefs have made their cuts to get the roster down to 53 players.
