It’s hard to find any flaws in a team that has won consecutive Super Bowls and has made it to six consecutive AFC Championship Games. However, the Kansas City Chiefs have one uncertainty on the roster that needs to be figured out in camp - left tackle.
Wanya Morris and rookie second-round pick Kingsley Suamataia are in the midst of a battle to see who will be the starter. After the first week of camp, it appears that one is starting to pull away from the other.

I would not call it a perfect camp for Suamataia, but I'm not sure that was to be expected for a rookie entering the NFL. After the first few days of rotating with Wanya Morris, Suamataia has been taking all the top-team left tackle reps in padded work.
According to Pete Sweeney of Arrowhead Pride, Suamataia has been taking all the first-team reps since the pads went on. Sweeney also notes that Morris has looked better in pass protection than Suamataia, but the Chiefs seem to be “bullish” on the BYU product getting those reps.
At times, Morris has looked more solid than Suamataia: in particular, in pass pro. But the #Chiefs remain bullish.
