The Kansas City Chiefs are set to begin minicamp, and one position is dominating the headlines.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Kansas<\/p>\n

The Kansas City Chiefs’ biggest roster question all offseason has centered around one key position, so it is natural that the main storyline to follow in the coming days is how things unfold.<\/p>\n

Of course, we are talking about the offensive line, and in particular, the left tackle position, which, as of now, has two candidates to win the job.<\/p>\n

Free agent signing Jaylon Moore and first-round draft pick Josh Simmons.<\/p>\n

Given Moore signed a two-year deal this offseason at $30 million, and Simmons is coming off a knee injury that ended his final college season early, it is easy to envision Jaylon getting first crack to be Patrick Mahomes’ blindside protector.<\/p>\n

For CBS Sports, the Chiefs’ biggest storyline as mini-camp comes into view is who will win the starting left tackle job.<\/p>\n

“The Chiefs’ issues along the offensive line were utterly apparent in their loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX,” CBS Sports writes. “This offseason, they went out and addressed the problem at left tackle. First, Kansas City signed Jaylon Moore to a two-year, $30 million contract, and then selected Josh Simmons in the first round out of Ohio State.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Those two should begin duking it out be Patrick Mahomes’ blindside tackle, and their reps throughout minicamp will give us a barometer of who may have the inside track as we head towards the summer hiatus.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Moore should be the one who gets the majority of the reps during mini-camp with Simmons still rehabbing his knee, so the four-year backup is going to get a major leg up on the rookie.<\/p>\n

But once training camp rolls around, Simmons “should” be medically ready to go, then the real battle can commence this offseason.<\/p>\n

Of course, the Chiefs would ideally like Simmons to usurp Moore as the starter, but that is going to take time as the former Ohio State stud works his way back to full health.<\/p>\n

So, of all the storylines to watch this offseason for Kansas City, as expected, the left tackle position is top of the list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
