A banged-up offensive line prevented the Chiefs’ chances of repeating as Super Bowl champions in the 2020 season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In the 2021 offseason, GM Brett Veach wasted no time improving the unit.
He handed stalwart guard Joe Thuney $80 million in free agency, traded for Baltimore Ravens superstar offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr. and drafted Creed Humphrey and Trey Smith. Two years later, the revamped o-line paved the way to another Super Bowl title for the Chiefs.
Not only did the Chiefs’ o-line allow zero sacks, but they dominated in the run-blocking department as well. Kansas City racked up 158 rushing yards against Philly’s stout front seven on only 26 carries.
