Could Emmett Johnson FORCE Emari Demercado Off the Kansas City Chiefs Final Roster?

Kansas City Chiefs face tough questions after a 20-12 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams. With Justin Fields efficient but needing a bigger test, the Chiefs’ backfield and receiver depth battles heat up—could Emmett Johnson beat out Emari DeMarcado for a roster spot? Chris Clark breaks down key developments at running back, wide receiver, and offensive line, raising concerns about Khalil Benson’s role and Andrew Armstrong’s surprising early reps. Defensive worries loom as Chris Jones and Nick Bolton see limited action, and the Chiefs' pass rush generates just six pressures despite facing the Rams’ backup offensive line. R Mason Thomas impresses with speed off the edge, while questions mount at tight end and linebacker, with limited depth behind Travis Kelce and Drew Tranquill. Will Kansas City shore up their defense and establish a clear pecking order before facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? Don’t miss this deep dive into the Chiefs’ next steps at camp.
