Good value. Plus, a Mississippi baw! Could potentially be Demario replacement.

PFF’s 105th best FA

quote:

Gay is perhaps the best lateral athlete within the Chiefs' loaded linebacker corps, often drawing the quarterback spy role and earning some of the more challenging coverage responsibilities after starting his career as a pure downhill attacker. The former second-round pick is a quality weakside linebacker who appears to have grown better at reading and reacting, and he also did well in the occasional blitz package dialed up by defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo


Sounds like a Baun replacement

how many times did we see a QB break a run on the defense last year? Even Trevor Lawerence broke a few

He played well in the limited snaps he got at KC. He’s talented.
