Carson Steele is looking to find a spot on the Kansas City Chiefs roster, and the rookie running back helped his case on Thursday.
Through the halfway point in the third quarter, the UCLA product had four carries for 50 rushing yards and a touchdown run that made him look NFL-ready.

After another solid game from Steele, fans were calling for Steele to make the Chiefs’ 53-man roster.

HALFTIME REPORT:
– Chris Oladokun is definitely a third-string.
– Carson Steele deserves to make the roster and I will be mad if he don’t.
– Jaden Hicks should definitely be a starter.
– We definitely should sign another DB for our Nickel spot. https://t.co/x6ptHwsSnQ

Carson Steele is a great get for the chiefs
The Chiefs took a chance by signing Steele after he wasn’t drafted this year, and he could be this year’s undrafted success story. He had a strong collegiate career, tallying 3,232 rushing yards and 26 touchdowns across his two years at Ball State and one year at UCLA, including a season that saw him rack up 1,556 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns.
In his first preseason game, Steele had 29 rushing yards and a touchdown on just four carries.
Kansas City has a strong running back room that features Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire, but Steele has shown he can hang against NFL talent, and he could be a big for the Chiefs.
