Why Deneric Prince is a good bet for Chiefs’ 53-man roster

Last year, general manager Brett Veach and the Kansas City Chiefs struck gold with their second-to-last selection in the NFL Draft, taking Isiah Pacheco out of Rutgers with the 251st overall pick in the seventh round.

In 2023, they hope for a similar outcome regarding an undrafted signee in the same room: Tulsa running back Deneric Prince, who chose Kansas City over Miami.

“He’s a guy that we’re excited about,” said Veach of the running back in May. “He’s a big kid that can really run. He ran one of the fastest 40 times at the combine [and he] has done a good job over the years of working on the passing game.
