The KC Chiefs signed a pair of inside linebackers in free agency this offseason, including Zac Diles and Akeem Jordan. You can now add one more name to the competition: Nico Johnson. The Alabama football linebacker was picked by KC 99th overall.
I don't know much about Nico Johnson but I do know that most fourth round picks don't step in and start immediately. Diles and Jordan have more experience so I suspect they will see the lion's share of playing time early on unless Johnson comes out swinging right away.
