Trent McDuffie on chemistry building among Chiefs' DBs: 'We can just play fast'

The Kansas City Chiefs’ front office and coaching staff have assembled one of the best defensive-back groups in the league.

For the most part, it has been late-round draft picks that have developed into formidable cornerbacks for Kansas City. In the 2021 draft, Brett Veach identified Trent McDuffie as a lockdown corner, and elected to trade up to the 21st pick to take the Washington product.

McDuffie has stepped in and been an every-down player for defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo and this Chiefs’ defense. While speaking with the media on Wednesday, the 23-year-old cornerback explained how the defensive backs have picked up where they left off when they last played together.
