The Kansas City Chiefs have continued their tradition of adding players to the roster following tryouts at rookie minicamp.
After spending the past three days grinding at the Chiefs’ rookie minicamp, former Virginia OL Chris Glaser earned a contract with the team. Glaser announced on his social media channels that he had signed a contract with Kansas City. He clearly did enough during the three days of practice and team meetings to make an impression on the coaching staff.
Check out his announcement down below:
Glaser is listed at 6-4 and 306 pounds and is just 22 years old, making him one of the youngest tryout players at rookie minicamp. He has experience playing both right and left guard during his time at UVA, with 44 career starts on the offensive line since 2017.
The rookie continued to play the offensive interior with the Chiefs during minicamp this weekend. Kansas City has a need for interior offensive line depth, so it’s not a huge surprise to see them make this addition. This is just the first step for a player like Glaser, though. He’ll need to continue to impress throughout OTAs and minicamp if he’s to keep his spot on the team.
With the roster currently at 90 players, the Chiefs will need to make a corresponding move to free up roster space. Also, expect a few more tryout players to potentially sign contracts with the team out of minicamp.
