Strong play on the defensive line has traditionally been one of the most substantial aspects of the Kansas City Chiefs’ identity. The team’s line will be led by All-Pro tackle Chris Jones in 2023 once his prolonged holdout from training camp inevitably ends.
Jones is, rightfully, the face of the unit, but the efforts of veteran lineman Derrick Nnadi haven’t gone unnoticed. Nnadi is a fellow defensive tackle that has joined Jones in applying pressure to the middle of opposing offensive lines since 2018 when Kansas City selected him as a third-round draft pick.
