Chris Oladokun, a quarterback who joined the Kansas City Chiefs after being released by the Pittsburgh Steelers, finally made his NFL regular season debut. Despite being a seventh-round pick and winning two Super Bowls with the Chiefs as a practice squad member, Oladokun never received any training camp reps with the Steelers and is now seeking a more active role in the league.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun scrambles during an NFL preseason game against the Chicago Bears on Aug. 22, 2024, at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.Oladokun joined the Chiefs after the Steelers released him in 2022. He never received any training camp reps with the Steelers even after being a seventh-round pick, and so they cut him loose so he could find a new home.
Since then, Oladokun has remained on the Chiefs' practice squad, winning two Super Bowls with them. He finally made his NFL regular season debut this year, posting just five rushing yards. A seventh-round pick out of South Dakota State, Oladokun joined the Steelers as the second quarterback, along with Kenny Pickett, selected in that class. However, due to the completion between Pickett, Mitch Trubisky, and Mason Rudolph for the starting spot, Oladokun never received reps, asking why the move was made in the first place.
Now 27 years old, Oladokun will hope to find his way onto either the Chiefs' active roster or join another team where he can finally land some playing time or a long-term role., where our team of sports betting experts has reviewed the experience, payout speed, parlay options and quality of odds for multiple sportsbooks.If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
