24 Jordan Lucas DB

Lucas was traded from the Dolphins to the Chiefs on Friday in exchange for an undisclosed draft pick.

The 2016 sixth-round pick out of Penn State joins the Chiefs' 53-man roster after spending much of his 2017 campaign on special teams for the Dolphins. He'll also provide depth at cornerback behind Steven Nelson and Kendall Fuller.

Lucas re-signed Wednesday with the Dolphins, Alain Poupart of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Lucas is expected to serve as a depth cornerback should he stick on Miami's roster throughout the 2018 campaign. Entering his third season with the Dolphins, Lucas has appeared in 19 games and tallied just eight combined tackles.

Lucas finished the 2017 season with six tackles in 11 games.

Lucas was the sixth-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft by Miami but has played sparingly in his two years with the club. He has been used as a depth cornerback and special teams player, a role that isn't likely to change should he remain with the team next season.

Lucas was promoted to the Dolphins active roster on Tuesday.

Lucas joins the active roster after tackle Eric Smith was placed on injured reserve Tuesday. The 24-year-old defensive back will likely play a role as a backup and on special teams.
