The Kansas City Chiefs have selected former Tennessee Volunteers corner Kamal Hadden in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Tennessee Volunteers corner Kamal Hadden had the best season of his career this past year. He bounced back from a difficult 2022 campaign and was the Vols' best cover corner in 2023. Hadden logged 19 tackles, seven pass deflections, and three interceptions in seven contests before suffering a season-ending injury against Alabama.

The Kansas City Chiefs recognized his growth during his tenure at the University of Tennessee and selected him with the No. 211 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Hadden became Tennessee's third draft pick of the day, and their third overall during this year's draft process.

"Tennessee prepared me greatly for the league, sticking with me and helping me grow as a man and helping me grow as a player. They helped me tremendously... just giving me the opportunity to showcase who I am as a player but also as a man." - Kamal Hadden to reporters at the 2024 NFL Combine
