Chiefs' Jack Cochrane: Signs tender with Kansas City
Rotowire
Cochrane signed his right-of-first-refusal tender with the Chiefs on Friday.
Cochrane will officially play out the 2025 season on a one-year, $3.263 million contract. He suited up for 15 regular-season games with the team in 2024, playing just nine snaps on defense compared to 296 snaps on special teams. Cochrane figures to reprise a similar role in the coming season, which means he'll remain off the IDP radar for fantasy purposes.

Chiefs' Jack Cochrane: Relied on after Tranquill injury
Rotowire
Cochrane recorded seven solo tackles in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Packers.
After losing linebacker Drue Tranquill (concussion) on the seventh play of the game, the Chiefs relied heavily on Cochrane, who recorded a season high in defensive snaps (56) and tackles. The 24-year-old should see another uptick in playing time if Tranquill fails to clear concussion protocol for Week 14.
