The Kansas City Chiefs revamped their offensive tackle position this offseason by signing two veterans to free-agent contracts. Jawaan Taylor was first, earning a four-year deal after exclusively playing right tackle for the Jacksonville Jaguars. The second acquisition was Donovan Smith, an eight-year veteran who has only played left tackle throughout his career.
Those are the projected starters, slated to play on the side they always have — but what if one goes down to injury? Instead of changing two positions, it would be ideal for a reserve lineman to be able to fill in for either side.
