Chiefs trade for Josh Uche

The Chiefs bring in help for Edge Rusher.

New England is trading Josh Uche to Kansas City, according to multiple reports.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Chiefs will send a 2026 sixth-round pick to the Patriots in exchange for Uche.

Uche, 26, was a 2020 second-round pick of the Patriots and played in 58 games with four starts for the franchise. He has recorded 2.0 sacks with two tackles for loss and three QB hits in seven games this season.

He was a healthy scratch for Sunday’s win over the Jets.

In 2022, Uche recorded a career-high 11.5 sacks with nine tackles for loss and 14 QB hits. He has posted 20.5 sacks, 19 TFLs and 34 QB hits in his career.

Uche, who re-signed with New England on a one-year deal in March, will now join a defensive front led by defensive player of the year candidate Chris Jones.
