The Kansas City Chiefs waived seven players on Monday about 24 hours before the NFL roster cut deadline on Tuesday at 3:00 p.m. (Arrowhead Time). By that time, the Chiefs need to be down to 80 players on the roster and they currently sit at 82 players after Monday's roster moves.
That means two more roster moves are coming before Tuesday's deadline. There were three total receivers released on Monday so that makes me wonder if the rest of the receivers are safe until the next round of cuts.
Other possibilities include a guard, where the Chiefs have several undrafted free agents in Lucas Patterson, Mike Ingersoll and Chris Harr. The Chiefs also have six total tight ends so that's a position to keep an eye on. Those are the two positions where I see an obvious overload so we'll find out shortly who gets the next visit from the turk.
I've updated the Chiefs depth chart and placed it after the jump. Which two players are next?
