Chiefs’ defensive line coach impressed with George Karlaftis, has lofty expectations for Frank Clark and Chris Jones

The Kansas City Chiefs made a surprise coaching move at the start of the offseason, hiring former Jacksonville Jaguars defensive coordinator Joe Cullen to be their defensive line coach. The move was unexpected because the job was not known to be open.

Brendan Daly, who had coached the defensive line the previous three seasons, was then announced as the linebackers coach and run game coordinator after former Chiefs linebackers coach Matt House was named the defensive coordinator of LSU.

Daly discussed the reasons behind a seemingly lateral move on the coaching staff in his media remarks on Thursday.
