Austin Ekeler is an intriguing running back to rank on any list, as to date, he has yet to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season. However, year by year, he has proven himself to be a solid dual-threat back in professional football.

Undrafted from Western State in 2017, Ekeler made the Chargers, playing in a reserve capacity, but would break out in his third season, starting eight Games and accumulating over 1,500 Yards from Scrimmage. Missing six Games in 2020 due to injury, Ekeler was money in 2021 and 2022, leading the NFL in Touchdowns with a combined YFS close to 3,200.  Ekeler's production fell in 2023 (1,064 YFS/6 TDs), and he signed with the Washington Commanders at season's end.

Ekeler overall compiled 8.239 Yards From Scrimmage with 69 Touchdowns.

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity. As such, we are very happy to present our post 2022 revision of our top 50 Kansas City Chiefs.

As for all of our top 50 players in football we look at the following:

1. Advanced Statistics.

2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.

3. Playoff accomplishments.

4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, Kansas City won their third Super Bowl and advanced in the overall hierarchy of the greatest NFL franchises of all-time. We saw three distinct rank elevations due to the powerful 2023 campaign.

As always, we present our top five, which did not change.

1. Len Dawson

2. Derrick Thomas

3. Tony Gonzalez

4. Bobby Bell

5. Will Shields

You can find the entire list here.

Tight End, Travis Kelce, exploded from #13 to #6.

Quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, who is now a two-time MVP, also rocketed up the ranking. He went to #8 from #19.

Defensive Tackle, Chris Jones, advanced nine spots to #31.

Selected in the second round (37th overall) out of Mississippi State in the 2016 NFL Draft, Chris Jones entered the league as a raw, physically imposing interior defensive lineman. It did not take long for his rare combination of explosive power, 6-foot-6 frame, and relentless closing speed to translate onto the professional gridiron. By his second season in Kansas City, Jones established himself as an elite game-wrecker along the defensive line, becoming the foundational anchor around which the franchise built its defense.

Jones rapidly elevated his play to become one of the most destructive pass rushers of his generation. His breakout 2018 campaign featured a career-high 15.5 sacks and an NFL-record streak of 11 consecutive games with at least one sack. Operating as an interior mismatch against opposing guards and centers, his ability to collapse the pocket from the inside fundamentally altered how opposing offenses had to game-plan against Kansas City.

When championship moments arrived on the largest stages, Jones repeatedly delivered signature plays. In Super Bowl LIV against the San Francisco 49ers, he batted down three critical passes in the fourth quarter to spark Kansas City's dramatic fourth-quarter comeback. He remained the central pillar of Steve Spagnuolo’s defense through subsequent Super Bowl title runs (LVII and LVIII), generating constant pressure at crucial junctures and cementing his reputation as a big-game performer.

That sustained excellence carried directly into the 2025 campaign, where Jones started all 17 games as the focal point of double-teams across the league. He posted another stellar year, recording 7.0 sacks, 29 combined tackles, 12 tackles for loss, and 25 quarterback hits while helping propel Kansas City into another postseason run. His work along the front four earned him his seventh consecutive Pro Bowl selection, confirming his continued standing among the game's top interior defenders.

Heading into the 2026 season, Jones is an active legend in Arrowhead Kingdom. Signed to a long-term extension, the 32-year-old defensive tackle is the defense's leader with three Super Bowl rings and a path to Canton. He aims to further climb the organization's all-time defensive leaderboards.  Going into this year, he has 87.5 sacks, 339 combined tackles (222 solo, 117 assists), 99 tackles for loss, 39 pass deflections, and 13 forced fumbles.

1. Jimmy Smith
