The Kansas City Chiefs continue to tinker with their wide receiver depth. On Monday, the team added rookie Hal Presley to the roster. Presley, who played his college football at Baylor, went undrafted. He recently had a short stint with the Buffalo Bills before being waived in May.

Chiefs Add Another Young Receiver In Hal Presley

Kansas City is taking another flier on a young, developmental wideout option. Hal Presley was signed following a workout and will now join the team for camp. Standing 6-foot-3 and weighing 210 pounds, he brings good size. He earned All-Big 12 honorable mention honors in 2022 after a solid college campaign. Presley now enters a Chiefs receiver room already deep with competition. Veterans and young players alike are fighting for limited roster spots. His signing follows recent workouts with Amari Rodgers and Seth Williams. The team appears to be carefully evaluating all remaining free-agent options.

Training Camp Opportunity Ahead

Hal Presley’s journey continues with a fresh opportunity in Kansas City. While brief, his time with Buffalo gave him a taste of the NFL level. The Chiefs will get an extended look at him during training camp. Presley will need to make a quick impression on coaches and staff alike. Kansas City has a history of giving undrafted players fair chances to earn roles. Presley’s skill set could potentially fit the team’s special teams or depth needs. Whether or not he sticks long-term, this camp invite is critical. Every rep and route will be essential to his evaluation process.

Final Thoughts

Hal Presley faces an uphill battle, but the door is slightly open. With the Chiefs always looking to reload talent, timing matters more than ever. If he makes the most of his opportunity, Presley could extend his stay. For now, the focus shifts to camp and making the most of every opportunity available.
