2. Deon Bush, Safety

Deon Bush’s time with the Chiefs so far can be remembered by the hilarious Twitter interaction he had with Chiefs fans back in March when he signed with the team around the same time that they traded Tyreek Hill to the Dolphins.

He was originally thought of as Daniel Sorensen’s replacement, but then the team drafted Cincinnati safety Bryan Cook in the second round. Cook’s upside looks pretty substantial, leaving Bush either lower on the depth chart, or even off the team.

The Chiefs normally carry around four safeties on their 53-man roster, so Bush can probably stick around as a depth piece and key special teamer, but don’t be surprised if he gets released.
