Chiefs Make Way for Succop to Kick by Waiving Barth

The Chiefs have waived kicker Connor Barth, which means that the kicking job will likely go to seventh-round draft pick Ryan Succop.

Barth played in 10 games for the Chiefs last season, making 10 of 12 field goals as a rookie, but the 2-14 Chiefs struggled mightily on special teams.

Succop was this year’s “Mr. Irrelevant,” the last player—256th overall— taken in the NFL draft. He played 50 games in four seasons at South Carolina, converting 71 percent of his field goals with a long of 55 yards. He made 66 percent his senior season and converted all 30 of his PATs.
