These 16 Chiefs players are slated to become free agents in 2024

The 2023 NFL draft is on our doorstep.

The Kansas City Chiefs will look to add players at positions of need throughout the event, but those needs might not be so obvious without added context. Brett Veach won’t just be drafting with the immediate future in the 2023 NFL season in mind, but the team’s long-term future as well.
