The Kansas City Chiefs will have many decisions regarding the wide receiver room this offseason. Multiple veteran players are free agents, and general manager Brett Veach has signed several receivers to reserve/future contracts, including Jason Brownlee.
Brownlee went undrafted in the 2023 NFL Draft but made the New York Jets out of training camp, which was witnessed on HBO’s Hard Knocks. He didn’t appear in any regular-season games in 2024 but did play in 7 games in 2023, catching five passes for 56 yards and one touchdown.
The Southern Miss star initially signed with the Chiefs on January 15th to the practice squad without appearing in a postseason game. Brownlee is known for his significant catch radius, which makes him a favorite target for quarterbacks. As a college senior, he had 55 receptions for 891 yards and eight touchdowns, showing flashes of what he could be with more time on the field.

Brownlee will be a promising project for the Chiefs coaching staff going into the offseason.
