Replacing Dustin Colquitt won’t be easy, so the Kansas City Chiefs plan to have a “true competition” to replace him as the new punter.

The next punter for the Kansas City Chiefs has not yet been identified. The only thing that is known is that he will have big shoes to fill in Dustin Colquitt’s absence, a player who special teams coach Dave Toub recently named the “best punter” he’s ever coached.
