2021 NFL Free Agency, Live Updates: AFC West

5 min read
Mitchell Schwartz OT Kansas City Chiefs

For the first time in his career, former Kansas City Chiefs OT Mitchell Schwartz missed a game in 2020. The Chiefs parted ways with the four-time All-Pro earlier this month.

The Broncos lost Pro Bowl running back Phillip Lindsay, the Chiefs picked up a second-team All-Pro and the Chargers added an All-Pro offensive lineman. The Raiders traded away starting offensive linemen for draft picks and the Chiefs cut a couple of their own starting linemen to create more cap flexibility. The AFC West has been busy so far this offseason.
