Revis was released by the Jets following the 2016 season, which was the worst of his esteemed career.

Revis is a seven-time Pro Bowler and has earned First Team All-Pro honors four times.
The Chiefs have sputtered in recent weeks. After starting 5-0, they now sit at 6-4. But despite the recent struggles, Kansas City has a two-game lead in the AFC West.
