Kansas City ChiefsGarrett Nussmeier
Garrett Nussmeier is a NFL QB for the Kansas City Chiefs (#14). Listed at 6'1", 205 lbs. Currently questionable (There was a fair amount of mainstream media hype for Nussmeier to go on Day 2 of the draft, so for him to fall into the late seventh makes him a harmless, all-upside pick for the Chiefs. The Chiefs of course hope Nussmeier won't need to see the field right away, but all it might take is a good start or two to make Nussmeier a fought-over trade target a few years from now. In the meantime, the Chiefs will likely be happy if Nussmeier can merely stick on the roster as a backup -- an outcome that was taken as a foregone conclusion by most draft observers as recently as the morning before the Chiefs picked him. Nussmeier (6-foot-2, 203 pounds) is smallish and struggled a concerning amount during his LSU career, including in his most recent season. Nussmeier's completion percentage was poor in his first four years -- 64.2 as a fourth-year player was his career high to that point -- and then in 2025 Nussmeier's YPA dropped to 6.7 yards. This is probably another Quinn Ewers sort of scenario.).
