The Kansas City Chiefs’ offensive line delivered an impressive performance in their Super Bowl victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in February, providing solid protection for Patrick Mahomes and creating spaces for the team’s running backs. Despite their achievements, the outstanding offensive line from the 2022 campaign is expected to undergo some changes next season.
Key players set to return
Left guard Joe Thuney, right guard Trey Smith, and center Creed Humphrey are all set to return to the team for the upcoming season. These players proved crucial in the Chiefs’ Super Bowl win, and their continued presence will help maintain the strength of the offensive line.
Orlando Brown Jr. a free agent
However, left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. is now a free agent, which could impact the Chiefs’ offensive line dynamic. Brown played a significant role in the team’s success last season, and whether he will return or sign with another team remains to be seen.
Andrew Wylie joins Washington Commanders
Right tackle Andrew Wylie has already left the Chiefs, signing a three-year deal with the Washington Commanders. Wylie’s departure means Kansas City will need to find a suitable replacement to maintain their offensive line’s prowess and continue their success on the field.
