Chiefs sign defensive tackle to 53-man roster
https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2024/...-53-man-roster
The Kansas City Chiefs made a minor roster move on Tuesday, just two days ahead of their season-opening game against the Baltimore Ravens. We have signed Practice Squad player Marlon Tuipulotu to an active roster contract. We have signed Eric Scott to the Practice Squad. pic.twitter.com/bjDQOLQQ4B — Kansas City Chiefs (@Chiefs) September 3, 2024 Per its official X account, Kansas City signed defensive tackle Marlon Tuipulotu to its active roster from the practice squad. The defensive tackle had been added to the practice squad over the weekend. Tuipulotu, 25, first entered the league as a 2021 sixth-round pick by the Philadelphia Eagles. In three seasons and 28 appearances with the Eagles, the 6-foot-2, 307-pound defensive tackle registered 43 tackles (22 solo). The Chiefs also brought cornerback Eric Scott back into the fold, signing him to their practice squad in the spot left vacant by Tuipulotu’s promotion. General manager Brett Veach put in a claim for Scott from the Dallas Cowboys at the 53-man roster deadline, only to waive him two days later. Scott, 25, entered the NFL as a sixth-round selection in last year’s draft. The 6-foot-1 cornerback (with an 80 ⅛” wingspan) has the size Kansas City likes in defensive backs, and it remains to be seen if he gets the call-up at some point. It is worth noting that Scott is a native of Basehor, Kansas, and he played football at Basehor-Linwood High School prior to Southern Mississippi in college. |

McDuffie would spend a lot of time in the slot to try to prevent quick-hitters (I figure they'll have Flowers in the slot a bit to free up his release and get him in short areas as quickly as possible). I'd have Danna/Karlaftis barely even trying to get upfield; just holding the edge and trying to keep Jackson in the pocket. Then I have Jones feast with Wharton alongside him on passing downs and Pennell taking up most of the 1st/2nd down snaps to try to absorb as much contact from Henry as possible. |

Lets set aside for a moment whether or not I think he's worth a shit and just presume that he IS a capable NFL rotational player. This team is a TERRIBLE matchup for him. About as bad as they come. I just don't think he's even playable in this game. Maybe you dress him for a handful of 3rd and 7+ plays here and there where you push Danna inside for a NASCAR package, but I'd STILL be playing Cam Thomas on the other side of Karlaftis in that set. I just don't see any utility in FAU against the Ravens. |

Nnadi sucks and Jones is indifferent in run support for the most part. You go out there with 22 personnel and Ricard at FB and just try to hammer the shit out of the interior, you might get some traction. Then you run some play fake and loft it on a deep post to Flowers hoping that you catch Reid still trying to knock the rust off or something. I could see the Ravens just trying some old-school shit; ground and pound and deep play-action shots. |

Should try out Steele at NT! Or wait is he just a FB?

It'd have to be the most obvious of obvious passing situations before he see's the field even then he likes to rush wide to the passer and gets washed out. Thats an absolute no no playing Lamar. |

Mentioned in the other thread when we signed him, but Eagles fans were sick that they cut him.
Looking forward to seeing what Cullen can do with him. |
