The accolades continue to roll in for the Kansas City Chiefs as one of their top players earns a distinguished honor.

Chiefs starting cornerback Trent McDuffie was announced on the Pro Football Focus 25 under 25 list, which features the best players in the NFL under 25 years old. McDuffie earned the spot for the second consecutive year and ranked fifth.

“McDuffie went from being a top-five nickel cornerback in PFF overall grade for Steve Spagnuolo’s defense in 2023 to a top-five outside cornerback in 2024. He is the NFL’s highest-graded cornerback since 2023 (89.7).” Wrote Jonathon Marci. “McDuffie has earned an 89.4 PFF coverage grade since entering the league in 2022, which is a top-five mark among all cornerbacks and makes him the only one in the top 10 to have spent more than 25% of their career snaps in the slot.”

Since being selected No. 21 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, McDuffie has emerged as one of the NFL’s best cornerbacks. He’s tallied 27 passes defensed, seven forced fumbles, two interceptions, and 4.5 sacks in his career. The former Washington Huskies standout was a first-team All-Pro in 2023 and a second-team selection in 2024.
