The Kingdom’s Newest Protector Has Arrived: With the 32nd Pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs Select Offensive Tackle Josh Simmons to Shield Patrick Mahomes and Anchor the Trenches for Years to Come

The Kansas City Chiefs are building a dynasty—and every dynasty needs a wall. With the final pick of the first round in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Super Bowl champs added a critical piece to their future by selecting offensive tackle Josh Simmons. The 6-foot-6, 315-pound lineman out of Ohio State brings both physicality and finesse to an offensive line tasked with one of the league’s most sacred duties: protecting Patrick Mahomes.

Simmons isn’t just a big body; he’s a technician in the trenches. Scouts have long praised his blend of raw athleticism and mental processing. Quick off the snap, fluid in his footwork, and relentless in pass protection, Simmons impressed at the NFL Combine and solidified his status as a first-round talent. Though some experts speculated he might slide into Day 2, the Chiefs weren’t willing to take that chance—and now, they’ve landed a player with Pro Bowl potential at incredible value.

The move is both strategic and forward-thinking. Kansas City’s offensive line has seen shifting parts over the past few seasons, but with Mahomes entering the prime of his career and defenses getting faster and more complex, the need for a durable, high-ceiling tackle was non-negotiable. Simmons checks every box.

 

What makes the pick even more exciting for Chiefs Kingdom is Simmons’ personality. He’s a locker room glue guy—a film junkie with a blue-collar mindset who leads by example. Teammates describe him as “relentless, respectful, and a straight-up grinder.” That kind of work ethic has long been a staple of Kansas City’s championship culture, and Simmons seems ready to embrace it fully.

 

For fans who love the run game, Simmons brings added hope. He’s a mauler in short-yardage situations and plays with a mean streak when finishing blocks. His presence could open up even more opportunities for Isiah Pacheco and the backfield, while giving Mahomes that extra tick of time to unleash deep strikes to Rashee Rice and Hollywood Brown.

 

Coach Andy Reid and GM Brett Veach have once again shown their knack for identifying needs without sacrificing talent. While other teams chased flashy names, Kansas City secured a building block—one that could become a cornerstone for the next decade.

 

As Josh Simmons pulls on his red and gold jersey for the first time, the message is clear: The Kingdom protects its king. And now, it has a new knight in the trenches, ready to shield the throne.

 

Welcome to Kansas City, Josh Simmons. The dynasty just got stronger.
