The Kansas City Chiefs are bringing back a familiar face for their defense. Derrick Nnadi is coming over from the New York Jets via trade.

The Kansas City Chiefs are bringing back a long-standing cornerstone of their defense.

According to ESPN, the Chiefs are trading for defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi. The 29-year-old had only signed a contract with the New York Jets in March at the start of free agency.

The price could hardly be lower, with both franchises trading conditional picks in the sixth and seventh rounds of the 2027 draft.

Nnadi won the Super Bowl three times

Nnadi was picked by the Chiefs in the third round of the 2018 draft and established himself as a starter on the team’s defensive line in the following years. He won the Super Bowl three times with the Missouri franchise. However, last year he lost his starting spot and only saw sporadic action. His only start came in Week 18 against the Denver Broncos. He then left the Chiefs and signed with the Jets. However, he will not see any action in the regular season for the team in green.
