Year to year, NFL roster turnover is common. It is happening in Kansas City, as we've seen several familiar faces depart from the Super Bowl champions in free agency.
Some of those former Chiefs have already been replaced already by Kansas City's own free-agent signings, but a few staple roles are available on both the offensive and defensive sides of the football.
