Chiefs DL coach Joe Cullen is impressed by rookie linemen: 'They have great motors'
During his press conference on Wednesday, Kansas City Chiefs defensive line coach Joe Cullen praised the work of two rookie defensive linemen so far at OTAs. "Well, the two are really good. I mean, when you study the draft and our scouting staff, led by our general manager, Brett Veach," said Cullen, "they do a great job, and they were guys that we identified and had opportunities to really get around and bring them in for a visit, Zoom with them. They both love football, and they're both football junkies, and they're really good players." Advertisement The Chiefs added the two defensive standouts, selecting Tennessee's Omarr Norman-Lott in the second round with the 63rd pick and Louisville's Ashton Gillotte in the third round with the 66th pick. "Well, they have great motors; they're powerful, explosive, and sudden. And both of them at their school, where they're represented, great in their role," said Cullen, "When you look at Omarr (Norman-Lott), when you broke down his snaps this past year, he led the NCAA and pass rush win ratio by interior tackles. And then Ashton (Gillotte) played all over the place. He played end and inside. '4i' was powerful. He was explosive when he went back to his junior year. Before his sophomore year, he had 11 and a half sacks. He was playing more on the edge. This year, they moved them inside a little bit. It's a '4i' kind of like Felix (Anudike-Uzomah) did when he was at K-State. So both those guys are going to bring great energy to the room, and they're doing that now." During his last season at Louisville, Gillotte earned Second-team All-ACC honors. He led the Cardinals with 10 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks and started 12 games with 43 total tackles. Norman-Lott recorded 44 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, 9.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery in his two seasons at Tennessee.

Chiefs rookie preview: Ashton Gillotte 2025 stat projections
Chiefs rookie preview: Ashton Gillotte 2025 stat projections The Kansas City Chiefs selected Louisville Cardinals defensive end Ashton Gillotte with the 66th overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft. Gillotte lacks ideal arm length and bend but fits the mold of a modern power rusher with a high floor in run defense. This type of player is becoming more coveted around the league. If given enough snaps, Gillotte could make a nice impact as a rookie. Excluding former first round pick George Karlaftis, rookie defensive ends don't have a great track record on Steve Spagnuolo's Chiefs defenses. Since Spagnuolo arrived in Kansas City in 2019, the five defensive ends drafted by the Chiefs have produced a total of nine sacks during their rookie campaigns. Six of those belong to Karlaftis. Even before Spagnuolo became the team's defensive coordinator, Kansas City struggled to draft reliable defensive ends. Tanoh Kpassagnon and Breeland Speaks were second round picks in 2017 and 2018, respectively. They combined for 3.5 sacks in their rookie seasons and 8.5 total sacks during their time with the Chiefs. Gillotte could snap the streak of struggling Chiefs defensive ends. He joins a room with limited depth featuring Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Mike Danna, Malik Herring, Karlaftis and Charles Omenihu. Danna and Omenihu pose the biggest threats to Gillotte's snap count, but both veterans are battling back from injury-shortened campaigns that saw them post some of the worst numbers of their careers. Gillotte could absorb most of the snaps given to Anudike-Uzomah and Herring in 2024, which would put him around 500 regular season snaps. However, that number seems unreasonably high considering both Danna and Omenihu missed significant time. It's more likely that Gillotte plays somewhere between 300 and 400 snaps. In 2024, Pro Football Focus charted Karlaftis playing 65.8% of his snaps on passing downs. If Gillotte hits the same mark, he would total between 197 and 263 pass rush attempts. Gillotte applied pressure on 15.7% of his pass rushes at Louisville in 2024, but that's a lofty mark for a rookie. If he comes closer to Karlaftis' 2024 mark of 11.2%, Gillotte would finish 2025 with between 22 and 29 pressures. Sack totals are far more difficult to predict than pressures because they're a less consistent measurement. Three to five sacks seem like a reasonable projection for Gillotte. He should create more splash plays in run defense and might even approach ten total tackles for loss when combining his sacks with his work in run defense. Similar to fourth round pick Jalen Royals, Gillotte is a piece of Kansas City's plan to future-proof its roster. The Chiefs would save roughly nine million by cutting Danna next offseason, and Omenihu is on a cheap, one-year deal. Gillotte is the future of Kansas City's defensive line, but don't expect a flashy rookie season.

NFL Network analyst predicts a better 2025 season for the Kansas City Chiefs
NFL Network analyst predicts a better 2025 season for the Kansas City Chiefs The result of Super Bowl LIX continues to be discussed regarding the future of the Kansas City Chiefs. Analysts and football commentators have been discussing the franchise's win expectancy going into 2025 without placing too much weight on the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. "That was an all-time Eagles team, and I don't take anything away from the Chiefs," said Kyle Brandt on a recent episode of NFL Network's Good Morning Football. The Chiefs won a franchise record 15 games in 2024 and went undefeated at home during the regular season and playoffs. "I look at the Chiefs last year. I think it was the weakest team of the (Patrick) Mahomes era and the most vulnerable team, and they won 15 games and had a bye," said Brandt. "We've seen it was like that was the year to get them, that was the year to take them out. Next year, I think they'll be better than they were this year." The Chiefs' 2025 travel schedule will be busy, with their opening game in Brazil and the most primetime matchups in the league.
