Inside linebacker Reggie Ragland was drafted out of Alabama by the Buffalo Bills in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft. Due to tearing his ACL before the 2016 and the Bills switching to a 4-3 scheme in the 2017 offseason, he didn’t have a place in the defense anymore. The once defensive player of the year in 2015 for Alabama was being traded before he saw any time on the field.
New General Manager of the Kansas City Chiefs Brett Veach decided to make a trade for Ragland trading away a future fourth-round pick for the linebacker.
