Chiefs sign OT Jackson Barton off Colts practice squad

Barton was a seventh-round pick with the Colts in the 2019 NFL Draft but didn’t make the initial 53-man roster during final cuts following the preseason. Barton will now be moved to the Chiefs active roster.

Barton attended Utah where he spent most of his time at left tackle. He also saw some work at right tackle as well during college.
