🏈 Chiefs sign Shelton for D-Line competition

The Kansas City Chiefs have signed free agent defensive tackle Danny Shelton to a one-year deal, according to NFL reporter Adam Schefter.

Shelton had previously worked out for the Raiders earlier this week.

Shelton was a first-round selection by the Cleveland Browns back in the 2015 NFL Draft. He lasted three seasons with the Browns before he was traded to the New England Patriots and played for two years there. In 2020, he landed with the Detroit Lions before signing with the New York Giants on a one-year deal a year ago.

This is yet another signing in the defensive front for Kansas City. The Chiefs signed defensive ends Carlos Dunlap and Azur Kamara since late July and added Matt Dickerson on Monday after releasing Shilique Calhoun.
