Breaking News:Chiefs Re-Sign Recent Cast-Off Amid ‘Phase 3’ of OTAs: Report

Published

on

The Kansas City Chiefs completed a bit of roster gymnastics on May 20, re-signing veteran defensive tackle Matt Dickerson.

A-to-Z Sports Kansas City reporter Charles Goldman first reported the news, but it was later confirmed by Chiefs Digest media member Matt Derrick, among others.

The staff favorite was released from the 90-man roster on May 13 in order to make room for linebacker/special teamer Cole Christiansen — another returnee. The Chiefs then cut running back La’Mical Perine on May 17, opening the door for Dickerson to rejoin the organization.

Dickerson has bounced around the NFL for six seasons, entering the league in 2018. He weighs in at 6-foot-5, 292 pounds and has registered 42 total tackles, three career tackles for a loss and three QB hits. Dickerson is still searching for his first NFL sack, however.

After a couple of looks with KC, the journeyman finally carved out a role inside Steve Spagnuolo’s rotation last year. Pro Football Focus recorded 190 defensive snaps for Dickerson in 2023 — with the majority of them coming Week 1 against the Detroit Lions (41 snaps).

The versatile defensive lineman earned a solid tackling grade of 74.1 on the campaign, with zero missed tackles and six key defensive stops. His run defense grade and pass-rushing marks were much lower at 45.5 and 53.9, respectively.
