Kansas City Chiefs Waive Veteran Defensive Tackle

The Kansas City Chiefs, despite all of the changes made in the off-season, once again look like a dominant force in the AFC, currently holding the second seed in the playoffs, but today, they made a surprise move, by waiving veteran defensive tackle Taylor Stallworth.

Un-drafted back in the 2018 NFL Draft, the Chiefs were the third team of Stallworth career, and while he hasn't looked like a superstar over that time, he has certainly been an effective contributor, racking up 44 tackles, 4.5 sacks, 2 fumble recoveries and a pass deflected. 

With so many surprise waiver moves this season, there's very likely to be more useful veterans being available in the coming weeks before the playoffs begin, and given Stallworth's experience and production, there's a very good chance he draws plenty of interest on the waiver wire.
