Much of the Chiefs’ defensive success has come from three key free agents

Despite making it as far as this season’s Divisional Round — and perhaps beyond that — the Kansas City Chiefs have still absorbed a lot of criticism for some of their offseason roster moves.

But last spring, there were three veteran free-agent signings for which general manager Brett Veach has received very little flak. All three have made significant contributions to one of the league’s very best units — one that held the Miami Dolphins offense (which ranked second in points scored and yards per play and second in offensive DVOA in 2023) to just seven points in Saturday’s 26-7 Wild Card victory on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
