Chiefs roster for Super Bowl 58: Starters, backups, depth chart for AFC champs vs. 49ers
View Date:2024-12-23 17:24:24
The Kansas City Chiefs have built their roster into one of the NFL's best over the past six seasons.
They have the results to prove it.
The Chiefs are playing in their fourth Super Bowl in five seasons, and they are aiming for their third title during that span. They've done it with smart drafting by general manager Brett Veach, who has found the perfect ingredients for coach Andy Reid and his staff.
The explosive offense that we've seen in the past isn't quite the same, but the defense is largely better. The Chiefs' offense ranked ninth in total yards per game (351.3) and 15th in scoring (21.8 points per game). On defense, they were second in total yards per game (289.8) and second in scoring (17.3).
Here is how the Chiefs roster stacks up heading into Super Bowl 58 against the San Francisco 49ers:
