Chiefs | Kansas City 'shocked' to have Emmett Johnson Tue Apr 28, 01:19 PM
Chiefs vice president of player personnel Ryne Nutt says the team was 'shocked' they could select RB Emmett Johnson in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: According to SBNation's Ron Kopp Jr., Johnson is projected to be the immediate backup to free-agent addition Ken Walker III, who will handle the lead role. But don't be surprised if Johnson earns his way onto the field on pass downs or in other situations. While there's a path to a role here, Footballguy Dave Kluge, in the 2026 Rookie Draft Guide 3.0, suggests "the floor for Johnson is low." |

Link to story Chiefs | Jadyn Ott lands UDFA deal with Kansas City Sun Apr 26, 05:24 PM
Oklahoma RB Jaydn Ott, an undrafted free agent, is signing with the Kansas City Chiefs, a source said Saturday, April 25. DeMarco Murray, a former Sooners standout, and running backs coach from 2020-25, is the current Chiefs RB coach, so he gets his guy.
| Footballguys view: Chiefs fifth round pick Emmett Johnson Jr. is a very good running back in the Kareem Hunt mold, but Ott looked like one of the best backs in this class during his first two college seasons, only to get hurt and fall off of the map at the end of the last two. That his running back coach is on the Chiefs staff and vouched for means that we should be monitoring the news out of Kansas City about their rookie backs very closely. |

Link to story Chiefs | Jeff Caldwell signed Sun Apr 26, 10:55 AM
Cincinnati WR Jeff Caldwell signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent Saturday, April 25, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Caldwell's size (6'5" 216), speed (4.31 40), and leaping (42" vert 11'2" broad) athletic testing numbers might make you think he is Calvin Johnson, but the soccer convert is more like Calvin Klein as a wide receiver at this point. He needs a year or two to develop, but Caldwell is worth stashing in dynasty leagues if your bench is deep enough or you have practice squads. |
Chiefs | John Michael Gyllenborg headed to KC Sun Apr 26, 10:51 AM
Wyoming TE John Michael Gyllenborg signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent Saturday, April 25, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Gyllenborg was maybe the most athletic tight end in this year's class and he looks the part in his small sample size as a receiver, but he's a project who needs at least one redshirt year on the practice squad to prepare for the transition from Wyoming to the NFL. We monitor anyone who has a chance to play with Patrick Mahomes in the future. |
