5 Kansas City Chiefs Veterans Who Won't Survive Training Camp in 2015

The hardest part of an NFL coach's job is the cuts. Playing dream crusher is tough, but they're paid well to do it. Here are five veterans Andy Reid will likely have a very uncomfortable conversation with during training camp.

If Bray is able to make camp after tearing his ACL, he'll have an uphill climb ahead of him. The Chiefs have five quarterbacks under contract, and Bray looks like the low man on the totem pole right now.

Hemingway showed some promise in a small sample size in 2013, but then seemed to regress last season. The Chiefs are not done adding wide receivers this offseason. Hemingway could easily find himself getting bumped to the practice squad.

Cooper performed very well at the beginning of the 2013 season, but it didn't last. It got worse last season as he saw his name falling down the depth chart.

GM John Dorsey publicly stated that Stephenson has a clean slate this year, which implies there were some internal issues that led to his lack of playing time last season. Stephenson will not only have to prove his worth on the field, apparently he's got some things to prove off the field as well.

According to Andy Reid, Pryor has been working very hard to learn the offense, but unfortunately somebody has got to go. The Chiefs already have Alex Smith, Chase Daniel and Aaron Murray. There's a chance Pryor beats someone out, and a chance Kansas City keeps four quarterbacks, but neither are very likely to happen.
