Chiefs holdout history: From Larry Johnson to Tony Gonzalez

The Kansas City Chiefs are down to a single unsigned rookie in their 2016 draft class: Notre Dame DB KeiVarae Russell. Even his status shouldn't last long, and perhaps he'll even sign his first NFL deal while I'm writing this story. The drama is gone from the NFL these days when it comes to rookie holdouts. Even professional holdouts don't seem to happen as much these days (although I certainly haven't taken an official poll to gauge the accuracy of that sentiment).

Any fan who misses holdouts has something wrong with them, of course. Fewer things are more frustrating than watching billionaires and millionaires fighting it out over money.
