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.

Gubner comes to the Chiefs after winning Big Sky Defensive Player of the Year honors at Montana last season. Spending six years at the Division I-FCS program, Gubner totaled 28.5 tackles for loss during his college career. The Chiefs also have cleared the runway for Matt Araiza‘s second chance. The recently added specialist is now the only punter on Kansas City’s roster, with Rehkow signing as a UDFA in May.

A former fifth-round Panthers pick, Nixon played 14 games with his original team but did see any game action in 2023. Both the Panthers and Seahawks waived Nixon in 2022. After Nixon had spent last season out of football, the Dolphins signed him in March.
