Kingsley Suamataia
21-Year-Old
Links up with Super Bowl champs
The Chiefs selected Suamataia in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 63rd overall.
ANALYSIS
The BYU product started full seasons at right and left tackle in Provo, showing versatility to be plugged in at either spot. Suamataia is regarded as a good athlete with the requisite size to stay at tackle in the NFL. The Chiefs have Jawaan Taylor and Wanya Morris as their starting tackles, and with Morris playing just 323 snaps last season, it's possible Brigham Young's Suamataia will compete for the starting job protecting Patrick Mahomes' blindside as early as this year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In camp competition for LT role
Suamataia received the majority of first-team reps at left tackle during mandatory minicamp and will compete with Wanya Morris for a starting position during training camp, according to Nate Taylor of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Morris struggled in pass protection at times as a rookie in 2023, prompting the Chiefs to draft Suamataia in the second round this April. The winner of the training camp battle will protect Patrick Mahomes' blind side while serving as a replacement at left tackle for Donovan Smith, whom the Chiefs didn't re-sign. Suamataia may have the early edge in the competition based on his usage in minicamp, but it's also possible the Chiefs were prioritizing the rookie being given more reps so he could acclimate faster to the NFL.
