Ring Chasers: 3 defensive free agents who could bolster their resumes with the Chiefs

Last week, we started the Ring Chaser series by looking at three offensive players who may want to join the Chiefs to pursue a Super Bowl title or larger contract in the 2024 free agent period.

This week, we turn to the defensive side, where help is needed to fill out the depth chart at two levels: the defensive line and the secondary.

Who could be the next Justin Reid or Carlos Dunlap for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2023?

It should be noted immediately that — based on his first five free agency periods in that role — general manager Brett Veach is not likely to invest significant financial resources into older players when the legal tampering period opens Monday.
