The Kansas City Chiefs have traded offensive tackle Wanya Morris to the Atlanta Falcons, according to sources. In exchange, the Chiefs received a sixth-round draft pick in 2027 and a seventh-round selection. Morris, 25, has played 16 games for the Chiefs over three seasons, including 11 starts at left tackle in 2024. The trade comes as the Falcons seek to bolster their offensive line, particularly after the retirement of right tackle Kaleb McGary. Morris's versatility and experience were appealing to the Falcons, who are adjusting their offensive strategy with two left-handed quarterbacks competing for the starting role. Morris's tenure with the Chiefs included a strong rookie season, but injuries and depth chart changes limited his playing time in recent years. The Chiefs did not draft a tackle this year, indicating their confidence in their current roster, but the trade of Morris reflects their ongoing adjustments as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season.
