Chiefs Add DT Shelton

For the second time this training camp, the Kansas City Chiefs have made an addition intended to bolster its defensive line.

Tuesday afternoon the Chiefs and veteran defensive tackle Danny Shelton agreed to terms on a one-year deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The addition of Shelton follows Kansas City’s July 28th signing of defensive end Carlos Dunlap, whom the Chiefs inked to a one-year, $8 million deal. With Dunlap and first-round pick George Karlaftis, the Chiefs continue making moves to re-tool the defensive line heading into the 2022 season.

Shelton, who played 13 games as a reserve for the New York Giants in 2021, is a former first-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2015
