Although many of these names, particularly former Cincinnati wide receiver Jeff Caldwell and Wyoming tight end John Michael Gyllenborg (an alumnus of Rockhurst High School in Kansas City), had been known, multiple names had not yet been confirmed as signing.<\/p>\n

On Monday, Chiefs Vice President of Player Personnel Ryne Nutt predicted this would be an exciting crop of undrafted talent for Kansas City.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will talk about them as a class,\u201d remarked Nutt, \u201cwe\u2019re very excited. We think this is going to be one of the better free agent classes we\u2019ve had. They\u2019re going to come in [and] they\u2019re going to push. It doesn\u2019t matter where you\u2019re drafted or how you come into the Chiefs organization. It\u2019s what you do to create value for yourself. We feel like there\u2019s a lot of guys here that we\u2019re going to bring in who are going to create value and are going to push some of the guys we have drafted, or some of the guys on our team. We\u2019re super excited about it. I think at rookie minicamp, they\u2019re going to come in and you\u2019re going to see it.\u201d<\/p>\n

After adding 20 undrafted free agents, Kansas City\u2019s roster should now total 91 players \u2013 the maximum allowed with tackle Chu Godrick playing under an international player exemption.<\/p>\n
