Chiefs sign outside linebacker Jonathan Massaquoi
The Chiefs have added to their pass-rush depth by signing former Titans and Falcons outside linebacker Jonathan Massaquoi, his agent announced Wednesday on Twitter.
Massaquoi, 27, is listed at 6-foot-2 and 264 pounds. He logged 39 games for the Falcons from 2012 to 2014, recording 70 tackles and six sacks while starting seven games.
He was claimed off waivers by the Titans in March last year and was waived shortly before the 2015 regular-season opener. He did not log any stats for 2015.
The Chiefs recently re-signed Tamba Hali, and they still have Justin Houston and 2014 first-round pick Dee Ford in the mix at outside linebacker. The Chiefs’ other players at the position in 2015 were veteran and special-teams stalwart Frank Zombo and Dezman Moses, both of whom are free agents.
