Kansas City Chiefs: Possible replacements for Keith Reaser

The Kansas City Chiefs have an opportunity to perhaps find depth at cornerback, filling a roster spot that the injury to Keith Reaser opens. Who are those candidates?

Keith Reaser simply has no luck. In training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs during the 2018 season, a leg injury hindered his opportunity to make the 53-man roster. After going and dominating in short lived Alliance of American Football in the spring, he returned to the Chiefs and their depleted cornerback group, hoping to make the team.

However, a likely achilles injury appears to have eliminated that chance. As big of a bummer as that is, the Chiefs now have an opportunity to find another player to contribute to the organization in either the short or long-term, or perhaps both.

We will start looking at some young players that could fill the role of Keith Reaser, whether it be young players, perhaps undrafted free agents still looking for a home, or late round selections the Chiefs could trade for.

Perhaps, with the development of both Byron Pringle and the drafting of Mecole Hardman, fourth year receiver Demarcus Robinson could be moved in an effort to acquire a cover corner.

Let’s dive in.
