The Chiefs have officially filled out its 16-man practice squad by signing TE Kendall Blanton and LB Cole Christiansen on Thursday, according to Matt Derrick.
Kansas City’s practice squad now includes:
- S Zayne Anderson
- G Mike Caliendo
- LB Jack Cochrane
- RB Jerrion Ealy
- WR Daurice Fountain
- TE Jordan Franks
- S Nazeeh Johnson
- DE Azur Kamara
- LB Elijah Lee
- QB Chris Oladokun
- WR Cornell Powell
- C Austin Reiter
- DT Danny Shelton
- DT Taylor Stallworth
- TE Kendall Blanton
- LB Cole Christiansen
Blanton, 26, wound up going undrafted out of Missouri back in 2019. He later signed a three-year, $1.755 million contract with the Rams, but was waived at the start of the season.
Blanton was later added to the Rams’ practice squad and has been on and off of the unit ever since. The Commanders claimed him earlier this month but he was among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason.
In 2021, Blanton appeared in 11 games for the Rams and caught four passes for 37 yards.
