The Kansas City Chiefs cut 14 players to get down to 75 players well ahead of Monday's NFL roster cut down deadline.

The 14 players cut are:

Name Pos. Ht. Wt. Exp. College

Shane Bannon FB 6-3 245 1 Yale

Tim Biere TE 6-4 260 R Kansas

Caleb Campbell LB 6-2 237 1 Army

Justin Cheadle OL 6-2 290 R California

Dominique Ellis DB 5-11 195 R South Carolina State

Jean Fanor DB 6-1 200 R Bethune-Cookman

Dexter Heyman LB 6-3 238 R Louisville

Cam Holland OL 6-2 320 R North Carolina

Jeremy Horne WR 6-2 193 2 Massachusetts

Ethan Johnson DE 6-4 300 R Notre Dame

Brandon Kinnie WR 6-3 220 R Nebraska

Zeke Markshausen WR 5-11 185 1 Northwestern

Matt Szymanski K 6-1 196 R SMU

Aaron Weaver WR 6-2 220 R Syracuse

From that group, Bannon and Campbell are the only mild surprises in there. Both were on the bubble but had a better shot of making the roster than the others on that list.

Some of these guys will make up the Chiefs practice squad. So they may not be gone forever.

We'll be back shortly with more...
