The roster breakdown series continues as we rank the Chiefs’ “adequate starters” heading into 2026. Xavier Worthy, Tyquan Thornton, Jaylon Moore, Drue Tranquill, Nohl Williams and more all get put under the microscope as we discuss who can take the leap, who could regress, and where the Chiefs still need upgrades. Plus: thoughts on the rookie bucket, incomplete evaluations, and why the lack of elite blue-chip talent could become a long-term issue for Kansas City.#Chiefs #KansasCityChiefs #NFLChapters: 0:00 Intro & Series Overview1:01 Rookie & Incomplete Evaluation Buckets2:25 Defining the “Adequate Starter” Tier2:59 Xavier Worthy Discussion4:18 Tyquan Thornton Evaluation5:08 Jaylon Moore at Right Tackle6:38 Tight End Room Breakdown7:13 Linebacker Concerns7:59 Cornerback Outlook9:12 Secondary & Safety Discussion9:51 Special Teams Evaluations11:24 Big Picture Roster Takeaways12:41 Final Thoughts & Next Episode Preview~~~~~~~~~~ BECOME A MEMBER to Arrowhead Addict on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ArrowheadAddictPodcast?sub_confirmation=1BECOME A MEMBER of Arrowhead Addict to earn sub badges for the live shows, early access to videos, an invite to the Arrowhead Addict discord, and much much more.
