2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Chiefs selected Hicks in the fourth round of April's NFL Draft, and he was considered by many to be a steal at that slot as one of the better safeties in the class. The 22-year-old is slated to begin the 2024 campaign in a depth role behind starting safeties Justin Reid and Bryan Cook. Hicks got the chance to work with the first-team defense in training camp while Reid was out with a quad injury, suggesting that the rookie could be asked to step up if either Reid or Cook ends up sidelined at any point.

Seeing first-team work
Hicks was working with the Chiefs' first-team defense Monday due to Justin Reid (quadriceps) being on the team's NFI list, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie safety out of Washington State has received a vote of confidence from his coaching staff, seeing first-team snaps while Reid recovers from his quadriceps injury. Hicks isn't expected to have a big defensive role during Kansas City's 2024 campaign, but he could be the next man up at safety if Reid or Bryan Cook goes down at some point this season.

With three Super Bowl wins in the last five years, the Chiefs are the class of the NFL. Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes set the tone, but roster shuffling this offseason may make or break KC's 2024 campaign.
