Chiefs Signing QB Chris Oladokun

According to Eric Edholm, the Chiefs are signing QB Chris Oladokun to their practice squad.

It’s worth noting Oladokun will take the spot previously held by QB Bailey Zappe, who was signed to the Browns’ active roster Tuesday off Kansas City’s practice squad.

Additionally, Kansas City signed DB Keith Taylor to the active roster from the practice squad and signed WR Cornell Powell to the practice squad, per the transaction wire.

The following is an updated list of the Chiefs’ practice squad:

1. OT Chukwuebuka Godrick (International)
2. LB Swayze Bozeman
3. DB Deon Bush
4. DE Truman Jones
5. DT Fabien Lovett
6. T Lucas Niang
7. WR Nikko Remigio
8. WR Justyn Ross
9. WR Montrell Washington
10. DB Nic Jones
11. RB Emani Bailey
12. DB Eric Scott
13. TE Peyton Hendershot
14. RB Keaontay Ingram
15. TE Baylor Cupp (Injured)
16. DB Darius Rush
17. QB Chris Oladokun
18. WR Cornell Powell

Oladokun, 27, was a seventh-round pick to the Steelers back in 2022. He was waived at the end of training camp in 2022 and was brought back to Pittsburgh right after on the practice squad. 

In February of 2023, the Chiefs signed Oladokun off the Steelers’ practice squad. Kansas City brought him back on a futures contract before releasing him at the end of camp.

From there, Oladokun was on and off of the Chiefs’ roster. Kansas City opted to waive Oladokun coming out of the preseason. 

During his college career at Samford, Oladokun appeared in 19 games and threw for 2,279 yards, 19 touchdowns, and nine interceptions while completing 63 percent of his passes. He also rushed for 517 yards and 10 touchdowns over the course of two seasons.
