## Resource

The Chiefs are making waves by starting undrafted rookie Kahlil Benson at left tackle for their season opener against the Broncos — a team that’s led the league in sacks for two years. With Mahomes still recovering from last season’s major injury, this gamble on a raw, unproven lineman could be historic. Benson, who played his final college year at undefeated Indiana, had physical flaws and disciplinary issues, and even scouts questioned if he belonged at tackle. Now, facing a Broncos pass rush loaded with Pro Bowl talent, Benson’s debut could be a brutal test — and possibly a defining moment for both him and the franchise.
