He was better at right tackle than he was at left tackle, and the 2023 third-round pick will make $2.6 million over the next two seasons. In a market in which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4240920\/dan-moore-jr\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dan Moore<\/a> and current Chiefs lineman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4043041\/jaylon-moore\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jaylon Moore<\/a> received $15 million or more per season in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/44193600\/dan-moore-jr-lands-4-year-82m-deal-titans-sources-say\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">free agency<\/a>, Morris would have meaningful value if he were on the open market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">If the Chiefs plan to play Suamataia at guard while using Moore as their swing tackle, they could justify trading Morris. Doing so would land them some needed cornerback depth in Phillips, who might be on the bubble to make the 53-man roster in Atlanta. The third-year pro has been solid as a reserve corner over his first two years, though he has some concerns as a tackler. Phillips is dealing with a rib injury, but he could settle in later this season as a fourth cornerback in Kansas City.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With that being said, Morris is a more valuable player than it might seem.
