Chiefs Release CB Taurean Nixon & LB Marcus Rush From Practice Squad
The Kansas City Chiefs officially released CB Taurean Nixon and LB Marcus Rush from their practice squad on Thursday.
The Chiefs’ practice squad now consists of:
TE Orson Charles (Exception)
OL Joseph Cheek
WR Gehrig Dieter
WR Marcus Kemp
G Damien Mama
S Leon McQuay
OT Isaiah Williams
RB Akeem Hunt
Nixon, 26, was taken in the seventh-round of the 2015 NFL draft. He was unable to make the 53-man roster coming out of the preseason but was later signed to their practice squad.
Denver promoted Nixon to their active roster back in January of last year but was re-signed to the practice squad after being among the team’s final roster cuts coming out of the preseason.
