Arrowhead Pride • • sports
Key Points:
- The tallest player on the Kansas City Chiefs roster is offensive tackle Ethan Driskell, standing 6 feet 8 3/8 inches tall, currently serving mainly as the third-team right tackle.
- The shortest player is wide receiver Jacob De Jesus at 5 feet 6 inches, an impressive undrafted rookie known for his catching skills, though making the final roster remains a long shot.
- Defensive tackle Cole Brevard, weighing 343 pounds, is the heaviest player on the team, aiming to leverage his size to earn a practice squad spot as a reserve A-gap tackle.
- Speed is highlighted by wide receivers Xavier Worthy (4.21 seconds 40-yard dash), Tyquan Thornton, and Omari Evans (both 4.28 seconds), with Evans also noted for his 41-inch vertical leap.
- Tight end Mason Pline, formerly a basketball player, stands over 6 feet 6 inches tall and has transitioned to football recently, showing promising athleticism during camp with the reserve teams.
