The Kansas City Chiefs waived linebacker Gary Johnson, tackle Justin Senior and running back James Williams, according to the NFL’s official transaction report. The Chiefs will replace one of those vacant spots by signing tight end Neal Sterling, as first reported by Dov Kleiman.
Sterling, 27, first entered the league as a seventh-round pick made by Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2015 NFL Draft. Released by the Jaguars in September 2017, the 6-foot-4, 240-pound Sterling caught on with the New York Jets only to be released a month later.
