2. Skyy Moore, Wide Receiver

One of the position groups that I think could be in flux for the Kansas City Chiefs all throughout the season is the wide receiver position. The Chiefs had to sort through a pretty large group of players during their offseason program and training camp, and they already made some pretty tough cuts.

Even though Chiefs fans aren't exactly sad to see him go, the Chiefs cut former first-round pick and trade acquisition Kadarius Toney (who remains a free agent). They cut Justyn Ross and Nikko Remigio, a pair of training camp studs, and ended up bringing them back to the practice squad.

They brought in JuJu Smith-Schuster after he was cut by the New England Patriots and he immediately supplanted former second-round pick Skyy Moore on the depth chart.

With Marquise Brown starting off the season dealing with a shoulder injury, it's not likely that we'll see Moore cut or traded anytime soon, but as the Chiefs' receiver room gets healthy, it wouldn't be shocking in the slightest to see them let him go. It felt like he was on the roster bubble at the end of the preseason and that he was lucky to have made it in the first place.

If we see Moore out there struggling to start the season, the Chiefs could even look to replace him on the 53-man roster with one of the guys currently on the practice squad, especially players like Remigio and Montrell Washington who have punt return experience.
