Chiefs Waive 12 Players

The Chiefs have started to trim their roster, with the team announcing that they’ve waived the following 12 players:

Kelvin Joseph‘s brief stint in Kansas City has already come to an end. The former second-round pick disappointed during his time in Dallas, starting only three of his 26 appearances through two seasons. He was traded to Miami last August but only got into four games with his new squad before earning his walking papers. He ended the campaign with the Seahawks, and in total, he finished the 2023 campaign having appeared in only five games. Joseph signed a reserve/futures contract with the Chiefs back in January but didn’t do enough during the preseason to earn a spot on the opening 53-man roster.

Ian Book joined the Chiefs via a reserve/futures contract back in January, but he wasn’t able to pass Chris Oladokun as the organization’s QB3 behind Patrick Mahomes and Carson Wentz. Book hasn’t seen the field since his one-start cameo with the Saints in 2021, although he’s continued to get jobs from the Eagles and Patriots.
