In response to a decline in sack production, the Kansas City Chiefs selected defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott and end Ashton Gillotte during the 2025 NFL draft. After falling to 39 sacks in 2024, the team looks to rebuild its defense, banking on the rookies to significantly contribute alongside returning players George Karlaftis and Chris Jones. Chiefs personnel emphasize the necessity of effective pass-rushers, as they opted for these promising players over signing veterans in free agency, highlighting the potential each rookie brings to revitalizing the team's defensive efforts.
You can never have enough of them, Chiefs senior director of player personnel Mike Bradway said of finding players who can successfully rush the opposing quarterback.
Relentless, unforgiving, Norman-Lott said in describing his best pass rush qualities. I believe I have a natural ability of getting off the ball.
