The Chiefs are using seventh-round pick Mike Catapano at outside linebacker in training camp. | ||||||
Catapano is a bit of a 'tweener at 6-foot-3, 271, but K.C.'s coaching staff believes he's athletic enough to convert from college defensive end. "He's got a little knack for pass rushing," said coach Andy Reid. Catapano is being crosstrained at outside 'backer on early downs and inside 'backer in the nickel. | ||||||

Chiefs agreed to terms with No. 207 overall pick DE Mike Catapano on a four-year contract. | ||||||
The 2012 Ivy League Defensive Player of the Year, Catapano logged 12 sacks and 15.5 tackles for loss. Standing in at 6-foot-3, 271 pounds, Catapano clocked a 4.75 40-yard dash at the Combine while reeling off 33 reps on the bench press. He could see time at outside linebacker if new coach Andy Reid follows through on his pledge to stick with the Chiefs' 3-4 defense. | ||||||
