Impact Thornhill will change locales coming off his career-best campaign with the Chiefs in 2022, during which he logged 71 tackles, nine pass breakups, three interceptions and a sack over 16 regular-season games. In Cleveland, Thornhill is expected to immediately step in as the Browns' starting free safety alongside Grant Delpit, as the team also transitions to new defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz this coming season.

Career-high output in 2022 Thornhill registered a career-best 71 tackles (43 solo), three interceptions and a sack over 16 games during the 2022 regular season.

Impact Aside from a slight downturn in his second season, Thornhill has churned out consistent campaigns on the back end of Kansas City's defense throughout his rookie contract. However, he's scheduled to hit free agency this offseason, so the Chiefs' brass will need to decide whether they want to keep him in town or allow him to explore free agency. The Chiefs have some wiggle room from a cap standpoint and not a ton of starters set to hit free agency this season, so the team could make a run at extending Thornhill.

Makes all-around impact Week 14 Thornhill posted seven tackles (five solo), including one sack, and a pass defended in Sunday's 34-28 victory over the Broncos.

Impact Thornhill contributed one of his team' six sacks in this impressive outing for the Kansas City defense. The fourth-year safety also logged two more tackles against Denver quarterback Russell Wilson, who was forced out with a concussion early in the fourth quarter. Thornhill has now played every defensive snap since returning from his one-game hiatus due to a calf injury, totaling 17 tackles over these two contests. Expect him to continue slotting in as one of the Chiefs' top defenders Week 15 in Houston.

Posts 10 stops in return Thornhill compiled 10 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 27-24 defeat against the Bengals.

Impact Thornhill returned to his every-down role following a one-game absence with a calf injury. As a result, the safety finished with the Chiefs' second-most tackles behind prolific linebacker Nick Bolton (16). Thornhill also had what would have been his second interception of the season wiped away due to a defensive pass interference penalty by cornerback Trent McDuffie on the opening series of the game. Nevertheless, Thornhill still ranks second on the team in passes defended (six) this season, and he should play a prominent role in trying to stop the Broncos' paltry pass offense Week 14.

Missing first game of the year Thornhill is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams due to a calf injury.

Impact Thornhill sustained a calf injury during the Chiefs' Week 11 matchup versus the Chargers, ultimately leading to limited sessions on both Wednesday and Thursday, followed by no activity in Friday's practice. With the 27-year-old sidelined this weekend, expect Bryan Cook to operate as one of the team's starting safeties alongside Justin Reid.

Questionable for Sunday vs. Rams Thornhill (calf) did not participate at practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Rams.

Impact Limited practices Wednesday and Thursday would have seemed to have indicated that Thornhill was on track to play in Week 12, but his absence Friday casts a thick shadow over that proposition. Should Thornhill miss his first game of the 2022 season Sunday, rookie second-rounder Bryan Cook would likely be in line to start alongside Justin Reid at safety.
