DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah
The rookie Felix Anudike-Uzomah was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs at the end of the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft. The physical defensive end out of Kansas State had a total of 100 tackles, 70 total tackles, 26.6 tackles for loss, 20. 5 sacks, and eight forced fumbles in his time as a Wildcats.
The Chiefs brought Anudike-Uzomah home as the young defensive end grew up a Kansas City Chiefs fan his entire life. In his first season, he saw action in every game recording seven solo tackles, 0.5 sacks, and one forced fumble. Anudike-Uzomah has been on a line stacked with talent including players like George Karlaftis and Chris Jones.
Anudike-Uzomah will be chasing after Lamar Jackson in the title game doing everything he can to bring the likely MVP down.
CB Ekow Boye-Doe
Ekow Boye-Doe was a rookie free agent after the draft that the Chiefs signed to their practice squad. He spent the first 11 games of the season on the practice squad but was elevated due to injuries. After being elevated Boye-Doe was in for 84 special teams plays and 15 defensive snaps.
In the game in Baltimore, you could see Boye-Doe a little more with the secondary banged up a little. Cornerback Mike Edwards sustained a concussion in the game against the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round of the playoffs. If he can't go, you might see more of a rotation at that position trying to get fresh guys in their for Baltimore's speedy receivers.
