Chiefs Preseason Breakout Stars | Kansas City News

The Chiefs ended preseason with a tie against the Seahawks, breaking an eight-game losing streak—and it was all about the players stepping up. Felix Anudike-Uzomah and Peter Woods flashed elite potential, Jaden Hicks dominated on defense, and Marcus Harris led tackles with six. Jalen Royals also made a strong case at receiver.

QB Garrett Nussmeier showed poise and playmaking ability, making a third QB a real possibility.
