2024 NFL draft: Every second-round pick in Kansas City Chiefs history

The Kansas City Chiefs only have one pick on Day 2 of the 2024 NFL draft but made a huge splash in Round 1 by selecting Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy with the No. 28 pick.

A trade with the Buffalo Bills helped Kansas City land the speedy pass catcher and sent the Chiefs’ No. 95 pick in the third round to their perennial playoff rivals.

With plenty of holes left to fill on their roster, the defending Super Bowl champions will have a plethora of options when Kansas City gets back on the clock in the second round.

While most of the draft’s top players are already off the board, Day 2 should present the Chiefs with a chance to land another promising young prospect that their coaching staff can develop into a starter.

Check out this list of every player that Kansas City has drafted in the second round since 1967:

Detroit Tigers beat Kansas City Royals 6-3 to stop 5-game losing streak

Gage Workman came off the bench and hit his first major league homer, a two-run shot that sent the Detroit Tigers past the Kansas City Royals 6-3 on Sunday night to snap a five-game losing streak.

Matt Vierling had a two-run double and Riley Greene reached safely four times as the Tigers prevented a three-game sweep.

Called up hours earlier from Triple-A Toledo when Kerry Carpenter was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder sprain, Workman entered as a pinch hitter in the sixth inning.

Workman drove a 1-1 slider from Nick Mears (2-2) to right field to give Detroit a 5-3 lead.

Wenceel Pérez added an RBI single in the seventh.

Enmanuel De Jesus (2-0), the fourth of six Tigers pitchers, retired all seven batters he faced. Kenley Jansen struck out two in a perfect ninth for his 483rd career save and seventh this season.

Kansas City lost for only the third time in 10 games.

Hao-Yu Lee’s two-out RBI triple off the outstretched glove of Royals right fielder Jac Caglianone opened the scoring in the second. Zack Short walked and Vierling delivered a two-run double off the left-field wall to give the Tigers a 3-0 lead.

In the third, Kansas City greeted reliever Drew Anderson with three straight hits, scoring their first run on a hit-and-run, opposite-field single by Vinnie Pasquantino, and another on Carter Jensen’s sacrifice fly.

In the fourth, Caglianone doubled to left-center and scored the tying run on Maikel Garcia’s third hit, a two-out single to center.

Royals starter Noah Cameron exited after allowing a leadoff hit in the fifth on his 95th pitch. He allowed three runs and five hits with three walks and four strikeouts.

The top three Kansas City batters combined for seven of the team’s eight hits.

Greene has reached base safely in a career-best 21 consecutive games. In 27 games since April 11, he is batting .384 with 13 extra-base hits.

Up next

Tigers RHP Jack Flaherty (0-3, 5.56 ERA) faces Mets RHP Freddy Peralta (2-3, 3.12) on Tuesday night in New York.

Royals RHP Stephen Kolek (1-0, 4.50 ERA) pitches Tuesday in Chicago against White Sox RHP Erick Fedde (0-4, 3.79).

Detroit Tigers bested by Kansas City 5-1; Witt hits inside-the-park homer for Royals

Detroit Tigers bested by Kansas City 5-1; Witt hits inside-the-park homer for Royals

The Detroit Tigers were beaten by the Kansas City Royals 5-1 on Saturday night.

Michael Wacha pitched seven scoreless innings, Bobby Witt Jr. hit an inside-the-park home run on a grounder and Michael Massey had a three-run homer for the Royals, who will go for the series sweep on Sunday night.

Witt hit the ball down the right-field line in the first inning that bounced off the wall and eluded right fielder Kerry Carpenter. Witt motored around the bases and beat the relay throw to the plate for a two-run homer.

It was the Royals’ first inside-the-park home run since Witt did it in August 2023.

Carpenter left the game later with left shoulder soreness.

Wacha (4-2) gave up two hits, walked two and struck out six. It was his longest scoreless outing since throwing eight scoreless innings against the Chicago White Sox on April 11.

Burch Smith (0-2) took the loss. He retired only one of the four batters he faced, allowing two runs on three hits in one-third of an inning.

Massey’s homer in the fourth inning came with runners on first and third with two outs. He lined the ball over the right-center field fence for his third homer of the season.

Wacha had at least one strikeout in each of his first four innings. The Tigers loaded the bases in the fifth on a double, a walk and a hit batter, but Wacha got Matt Vierling to ground out to end the inning.

The Tigers scored in the eighth on a two-out double by Riley Greene.

Up next

The teams conclude the three-game series Sunday. The Tigers have not announced a starter, though manager AJ Hinch said it will be a bullpen game. Kansas City will send LHP Noah Cameron (2-2, 5.40 ERA) to the mound.
