The Kansas City Chiefs reunited with rookie defensive lineman Jack Pyburn on November 11 after waiving him earlier in the day.
According to Greg Auman of FOX Sports, Pyburn cleared waivers and signed with Kansas City's practice squad mere hours after the Chiefs had initially parted ways with him.
Pyburn played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2026 preseason and was claimed off waivers by Kansas City on August 31. Formerly a member of the Chiefs' 53-man roster, Pyburn has yet to make his debut for Kansas City in the regular season.
Take a look at Auman's report on Pyburn's latest signing with the Chiefs, which was posted to his official Twitter account:
Rookie OLB Jack Pyburn, cut by the Chiefs on Tuesday, cleared waivers today and is signing
back to Kansas City's practice squad. Played at Florida and LSU in college, was with Bucs in preseason.

While Pyburn might not be the most well-recognized name on Kansas City's roster, the Chiefs' coaching staff must like what it has seen from the rookie pass-rusher, and fans shouldn't be surprised if the former LSU Tiger earns elevation to the team's 53-man roster at some point during the back half of the 2026 NFL regular season.
