        Chiefs sign TE Jake Briningstool as a UDFA

        The Kansas City Chiefs signed Clemson TE Jake Briningstool to an Undrafted Free Agent contract after the 2025 NFL Draft. The former four-star recruit started for the Tigers for the last two seasons, totaling 99 catches for 1,028 yards and 12 TDs. Briningstool doesn’t pop in the advanced metrics. Among 21 Combine TEs, he ranked 10th in Dominator Rating, 16th in yards per route, and 19th in Pro Football Focus receiving grade last year. And he registered an underwhelming 6.29 Relative Athletic Score at the Combine. But we like Briningstool’s tape. He has soft hands, can win at all levels of the field, and punishes DBs after the catch. We comped him to Dalton Schultz, who has turned in three top-12 fantasy seasons. Don’t be surprised if Briningstool becomes a fantasy factor over the next few years.

        Briningstool was a potential sleeper in the class after being a five-star recruit heading to Clemson.

        He had solid production and was a decent athlete, but failed to be drafted.

        With TEs Noah Gray and last year's fourth-round pick Jared Wiley on the roster still, Briningstool will have a long path to making the roster.

        Briningstool doesn't have any redraft or dynasty value currently.
