2025 Fantasy Outlook
Nnadi will likely play a rotational role on the interior of the Jets' defensive line in 2025, with no clear starter at defensive tackle next to three-time Pro Bowler Quinnen Williams. Nnadi has missed only one game in his seven-year NFL career, but he had only 11 tackles as a depth piece for the Chiefs last season. Read Past Outlooks

IDP
Signed a contract with the Jets in March of 2025.
Going back to KC
The Jets traded Nnadi to the Chiefs on Sunday in exchange for a conditional 2027 draft-pick swap, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Nnadi spent his first seven NFL campaigns with Kansas City before signing with the Jets in March. However, the Florida State product won't end up playing in a regular-season game for New York; instead, he'll continue his career with the only squad he's suited for as a pro. Nnadi doesn't rack up fantasy-relevant stats as an IDP, but he's been incredibly durable, playing in all 17 regular-season contests each of the past four years. He'll likely work in a rotational role with the Chiefs as he did last season, though his snap count may decrease after the team brought in a pair of defensive tackles in rookie Omarr Norman-Lott (ankle) and veteran Jerry Tillery.

2020
Nnadi didn't post the best campaign of his career in 2023 and graded out as the team's worst defensive lineman, per PFF, but he still snared a one-year, $2 million contract from the Chiefs to stick around in K.C. for at least one more year. Nnadi finished the regular season with 29 tackles (16 solo) and a sack but missed the team's playoff run due to injury. He'll presumably continue to see regular action in 2024, though Tershawn Wharton may continue to siphon away some snaps beside Chris Jones.
