Chiefs re-sign veteran safety Daniel Sorensen to one-year deal

The Chiefs have re-signed safety Daniel Sorensen, per a club announcement. The two sides were said to be closing in on a one-year deal last week. On Monday morning, they made it all official.

Sorensen, one of the longest-tenured members of the team, was a key piece of the Chiefs’ Super Bowl runs. Since joining the team as an undrafted free agent back in 2014, the BYU product has appeared in 94 games with 32 starts. All in all, he has 10 interceptions, 25 passes defensed, four forced fumbles and 3.5 sacks to his credit.

Sorensen spent four years as a reserve before cracking the starting lineup in 2017. This past year, he saw time in 15 games with 11 starts, racking up 91 tackles, five passes defended, two forced fumbles and three interceptions (including one pick-six). And, for the second straight year, the 31-year-old played on 100% of the snaps in the Super Bowl.
