This offseason, the Kansas City Chiefs watched their star safety, Justin Reid, walk out the door and head to the New Orleans Saints.
Reid played for the Chiefs for three seasons, winning two Super Bowls, and now someone will have to fill his shoes.
Matt Holder from Bleacher Report thinks saftey Jaden Hicks is capable of being Reid's repalcment and named him the team's "best kept secret".
"Hicks didn’t get much playing time during the first half of his rookie season a year ago, but he came on strong down the stretch of the year," Holder wrote. "He managed to record three interceptions, five passes defended and three tackles for loss despite starting just one game, while also earning a 71.7 PFF run defense grade during the regular season. With Justin Reid out of the picture, the Washington State product will have a much bigger role in Kansas City this fall and could make a name for himself."
In one season with the Chiefs Hicks recored three interceptions in 17 games.
Hicks is capable of leading the Chiefs' defense this upcoming season, which is probably one reason the team let Reid walk.
