Chiefs Worked Out DEs Nate Orchard & Terrence Fede

According to Aaron Wilson, the Chiefs brought in two defensive ends for workouts on Tuesday including Nate Orchard and Terrence Fede. 

Orchard, 26, is a former second-round pick of the Browns back in 2015. He was in the final year of his rookie contract when Cleveland cut him loose coming out of the preseason last year.

He had brief stints with the Bills, Chiefs, Seahawks, and Dolphins before getting released by Miami coming out of this year’s preseason. Since becoming a free agent, Orchard worked out for the Bengals, Raiders, Lions, and Broncos but left each meeting without a contract.

In 2018, Orchard appeared in four games for the Bills and Chiefs and recorded four tackles, no sacks and a pass defense.

Fede, 28, is a former seventh-round pick by the Dolphins out of Marist in the 2014 NFL Draft. After finishing his four-year rookie contract with Miami, he signed a one-year, $880,000 contract with the Bills back in April of last year. 

However, his stay in Buffalo was short-lived after being released as the team trimmed down their roster to the 53-man limit. He caught on with the Giants in August but was cut loose coming out of the preseason. 

Since becoming a free agent, Fede has worked out for the Raiders but left Oakland without a contract. 

In 2017, Fede appeared in all 16 games for the Dolphins and recorded 15 total tackles, no sacks, and one fumble recovery.
