The Kansas City Chiefs landed some serious talent in the 2026 NFL Draft, and one of their newest rookies is already making his voice heard—in the best way possible. Rookie defensive tackle Peter Woods hasn't even stepped onto the practice field yet, but he's already chatting up head coach Andy Reid about getting a shot on offense.

Woods, the Chiefs' second-round pick out of Clemson, was a dominant force on the defensive line during his college career. But he also has a hidden talent: finding the end zone. During his time with the Tigers, Woods was occasionally deployed as a goal-line fullback, finishing with two rushing touchdowns. Now, he's hoping to bring that versatility to Kansas City.

"I was just joking with Coach Reid earlier about the possibility of that happening here," Woods told reporters. "I had to stick my little joke in and see what happens with it. But hey, athletes make plays on both sides of the ball."

Given how the Chiefs' offense struggled to punch it in last season, Reid might just be open to the idea. After all, Kansas City has a history of creative trick plays involving their big men. Who could forget the legendary Dontari Poe—a 300-pound nose tackle—lining up at quarterback in 2016? Poe threw a touchdown pass to tight end Demetrius Harris and also rumbled in for a rushing score that same season.

Woods has the athleticism and the mindset to make a similar impact. While opposing defenses might be wary of a familiar trick, the rookie's confidence and willingness to contribute anywhere on the field could give the Chiefs a fun new weapon near the goal line. Whether it's a handoff, a pass, or just a decoy, Woods is ready to prove that great athletes find a way to make plays—no matter which side of the ball they're on.
