Preview every TE on the KC Chiefs' 90-man roster before training camp
· Yahoo Sports
The Kansas City Chiefs always seem to get their tight ends involved in the passing game, and as Patrick Mahomes returns to the field after suffering a serious lower-body injury last season, head coach Andy Reid is sure to be scheming up new and exciting ways to get all of his pass-catchers involved in the air attack.
Take a look at these brief profiles of Travis Kelce and every other tight end currently on Kansas City's 90-man roster before training camp kicks off in St. Joseph, Missouri, later this month:

TE Travis Kelce
One of the Chiefs' most recognizable stars, Kelce is widely regarded as a top tight end in NFL history. After re-signing with Kansas City as a free agent earlier this year, the former Cincinnati Bearcat is set to play a key role in the Chiefs' offense next season and should be expected to be one of Patrick Mahomes' favorite targets during every game the pair competes in.
2026 cap number: $4,896,667
TE Mason Pline
Pline is likely to be featured in Kansas City's game plans during the preseason, but his chances of making the Chiefs' 53-man roster are extremely slim. A former San Francisco 49er and New Orleans Saint, Pline entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2024 after a collegiate career with the Ferris State Bulldogs and Furman Paladins.
2026 cap number: $885,000
TE John Michael Gyllenborg
A local product with an intriguing athletic profile, Gyllenborg should be considered a dark horse to earn a spot on Kansas City's final roster. Expect Chiefs head coach Andy Reid to give this former Rockhurst Hawklet extended playing time in the preseason as Kansas City seeks its heir to Travis Kelce's throne.
2026 cap number: $891,666
TE Noah Gray
Now entering his sixth season with the Chiefs, Gray is one of Kansas City's most consistent veteran contributors and figures to be a key part of the team's offense this year. If Travis Kelce deals with injuries at any point during the 2026 regular season, expect Gray to become one of Patrick Mahomes' favorite targets in the passing game.
2026 cap number: $6,970,000
TE Tre Watson
Watson spent the 2025 season on the Chiefs' practice squad and might be able to sneak onto the team's 53-man roster if he excels during training camp and in Kansas City's August exhibitions.
2026 cap number: $885,000
TE Jared Wiley
After making two starts in his 2024 rookie campaign with the Chiefs, Wiley only managed to appear in two games for Kansas City last year and had just one four-yard reception to show for his sophomore season. Though his status as a former draft pick might buy him some cache with the Chiefs' coaching staff, Wiley can't afford to be complacent in training camp if he expects to earn a spot on Kansas City's 53-man roster.
2026 cap number: $1,247,155
TE Jake Briningstool
This former Clemson Tiger was among the Chiefs' most intriguing UDFA signings after the 2025 NFL Draft and may surprise fans with his outstanding length and athleticism during training camp. Briningstool will be an ideal practice squad prospect for Kansas City if his preseason performances don't entice another team to give him a spot on their active roster.
2026 cap number: $500,000
