As the K.C. Chiefs are yet to add a receiver at the time of writing this, it becomes more realistic that they’re banking on in-house candidates to break out in 2021. One under-the-radar contributor who could make his mark and surprise Chiefs Kingdom is former UDFA wide receiver Jody Fortson.
Fortson was originally added to the Chiefs roster prior to the 2018 preseason after helping lead Valdosta State college to a league championship as a senior.
