The Kansas City Chiefs' defense is one of the best in the NFL, and they rode that unit through the playoffs to a second consecutive Super Bowl in 2023.
Although the likes of L'Jarius Sneed and Willie Gay are gone, they have plenty of young talent waiting to have their numbers called more often to be big-time players on defense.
Amongst those players is linebacker Leo Chenal. The third-year linebacker has appeared in all 17 games in each of the last two seasons, totaling 65 tackles in 2023, eight of which were for loss on top of three sacks.
Chenal's teammates see a lot in him, specifically defensive tackle Mike Danna who says Chenal is in for a big 2024 campaign.
"His work ethic is off the charts," Danna said. "He's going to have a big year."
Chenal is likely going to be a starter this year next to Nick Bolton and Drue Tranquill.
