The Kansas City Chiefs selected LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier in Round 7 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Nussmeier showcased NFL upside in 2024 throwing for 4,052 yards with 29 TDs and 12 INTs. Nussmeier suffered a core injury before the 2025 season which affects his play. He would miss the final four games ending the season with 1,927 yards with 12 TDs and 5 INTs. He did increase his completion percentage from 64.2% in 2024 to 67.4% in 2025. Nussmeier also does have negative rushing yards in each of the last two seasons, profiling as a pocket passer at the next level.
