The Kansas City Chiefs ' 2026 draftees have selected their jersey numbers ahead of the start of their rookie seasons, with rookie minicamp beginning on May 1. Cornerback Mansoor Delane will wear No. 5 after wearing 4 in college at LSU. Wide receiver Rashee Rice currently wears No. 4 in Kansas City, so Delane moves up one spot while keeping a single-digit aesthetic at cornerback. Defensive tackle Peter Woods has taken No. 99 after wearing 11 at Clemson. Even after the NFL loosened the rules on jersey number restrictions , defensive linemen must pick numbers between 50-79 or 90-99, so Woods wouldn't have been able to take his collegiate digits from KC's current 11, wide receiver Jalen Royals. Second-round pick R Mason Thomas β a defensive end, by all expectations β has the quirkiest number of the batch, claiming No. 34 after wearing 32 at Oklahoma. The Chiefs' No. 32 is linebacker Nick Bolton. Interestingly, Thomas' 34 is legal for a linebacker, but not a D-lineman.β¦
