Jaden Hicks was supposed to replace Justin Reid but something went wrong Something is not clicking for Jaden Hicks this season in the Chiefs' secondary, and it's reflected in his usage rates.
Sees snaps at slot Week 1 Hicks finished Friday's 27-21 loss to the Chargers with four tackles (three solo).
Impact The 2024 fourth-rounder saw just one start in his rookie season, though he got the start at strong safety in Friday's game while also seeing work out of the slot and on special teams. The Chiefs' secondary got carved up by Justin Herbert, and they'll look to bounce back in their Week 2 matchup against Jalen Hurts and the Eagles in a rematch of Super Bowl LIX.

Seeing first-team work Hicks was working with the Chiefs' first-team defense Monday with Justin Reid (quadriceps) on the team's NFI list, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Impact The rookie safety out of Washington State has received a vote of confidence from his coaching staff, seeing first-team snaps while Reid recovers from his quadriceps injury. Hicks isn't expected to have a big defensive role during Kansas City's 2024 campaign, but he could be the next man up at safety if Reid of Bryan Cook go down at some point this season.
