Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Moves to IR, designated to return
Johnson (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday with a designation to return.
Johnson suffered a shoulder injury in the Chiefs' second preseason game against the Seahawks. By being placed on injured reserve with a designation to return, the 27-year-old cornerback will be required to miss at least the first four games of the 2025 campaign. Johnson will likely return to his rotational role in Kansas City's defensive backfield once he's healthy.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Back with Kansas City
The Chiefs re-signed Johnson on Thursday.
Johnson, a 2022 seventh-round pick, appeared in 16 regular-season games with Kansas City in 2024, logging six starts and totaling 56 tackles (33 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and three pass breakups. His re-signing primes Johnson to reprise a familiar rotational role on defense, while also remaining a key contributor on special teams.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Sees more action in 2024
Johnson finished the regular season with 56 tackles (33 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and three pass breakups across 16 games and six starts.
The 2022 seventh-round pick, who missed 2023 with a torn ACL and barely played as a rookie, saw extended action when Jaylen Watson was out for 11 games with a fractured fibula and tibia. Even with Watson back, Johnson played on 51 defensive snaps over the Chiefs' first two playoff games. Johnson will be a restricted free agent this offseason, meaning Kansas City can match any offer from another team.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Leads Chiefs in tackles Sunday
Johnson recorded eight tackles (five solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 30-27 win at Carolina.
Johnson played nearly all of Kansas City's defensive snaps in Week 12, and he posted eight-plus tackles for the third straight game. If he plays a similarly significant role in Week 13 versus the Raiders, he'll project as a good IDP play in most formats.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Makes eight tackles in loss
Johnson recorded eight tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 30-21 loss to the Bills.
The cornerback also played on all 71 defensive snaps. Johnson played on 91 percent of the defensive snaps in Kansas City's Week 10 win over the Broncos, and he now has 18 tackles (11 solo) over those last two contests. The 2022 seventh-round pick will try to continue solidifying his place as the Chiefs' starting right corner opposite Trent McDuffie in Week 12 against the Panthers.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Career high in tackles Sunday
Johnson recorded 10 total tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 16-14 win over the Broncos.
Johnson not only led the Chiefs in total tackles in Sunday's win, but he also doubled his previous career high for tackles in a single game (five). The Marshall product tallied the first sack of his young career as well, bringing down Bo Nix for a 17-yard loss in the first quarter. Expect Johnson to continue starting opposite Trent McDuffie as one of the Chiefs' top outside cornerbacks, especially after Sunday's performance.

Chiefs' Nazeeh Johnson: Ready to rock
Johnson (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.
Johnson missed Kansas City's Week 9 win over the Buccaneers due to a concussion sustained the week prior. However, the third-year pro was a full participant in practice throughout the week and has passed through the NFL's five-step protocol in time to play Sunday. Expect Johnson to serve as one of the Chiefs' top outside corners in Week 10.
