Tight ends (3): Travis Kelce, Noah Gray, Blake Bell Reports continue to say that Kansas City remains optimistic about Toney's Week 1 status.

We now wait for an update on the health of Toney, who hasn't been seen at practice since the opening minutes of training camp. But Ross' talent won out - and history was made on Tuesday afternoon. In my preseason projection, I assumed that Ross would be on the outside looking in simply because the Chiefs had never kept seven wide receivers at the deadline since Reid took the helm in 2013. Wide receivers (7): Kadarius Toney, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore, Justin Watson, Richie James, Rashee Rice, Justyn Ross Especially earlier in the season - when the Chiefs budget snaps for McKinnon - expect Edwards-Helaire to garner touches as the change-of-pace back. Kansas City keeping Edwards-Helaire - a popular hypothetical trade candidate - speaks volumes. I think all three have a shot at the practice squad.

In the running back room, young up-and-comers Deneric Prince and La'Mical Perine were waived - as was Jerrion Ealy, who signed on with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent following the 2022 NFL Draft. The running back and tight end rooms kept three players apiece. With the Chiefs keeping seven wide receivers and 10 offensive linemen - which we will get to in a minute - Veach had to borrow spots from other position groups. Don’t miss out - sign up today!

An annual subscription is $50, and there’s a monthly option for $6 a month. Asked about it after the Chiefs final preseason game, head coach Andy Reid noted that he and general manager Brett Veach would still need to 'count the numbers,' indicating that they wouldn't necessarily keep a third quarterback just because of the rule. The caveat is that the third quarterback would have to be on the 53-man roster.

If you read my 53-man roster projections, you'll know I maintained that I thought it would be wise for the Chiefs to keep three quarterbacks on the roster considering the 'emergency quarterback' rule, allowing each club to put a third quarterback in should the first two quarterbacks be out of the game due to injury. Quarterbacks (2): Patrick Mahomes, Blaine Gabbert This is just the starting point for 2023. Some players will likely be removed during the coming days to make room for other Chiefs players who were previously removed - or players from other teams who are now available. It's likely that this will not be the exact roster that will begin the season against the Detroit Lions a week from Thursday. The Kansas City Chiefs have made their cuts to get the team's active roster down to 53 players before the NFL's deadline.
