The Kansas City Chiefs operate a diverse defensive scheme, mixing 4-3 and 4-2-5 looks with a heavy emphasis on zone blitzing and disguised coverages out of two-high safety shells, often utilizing Cover 2, Cover 3, and Cover 4.
Year 1 developmental outside corner, with the ceiling to become a mid-tier boundary starter capable of matching up against bigger receivers.
A pure man-to-man coverage heavy defense that frequently asks corners to trail without safety help over the top.
Keyes' size and length make him a good fit for an attacking four-man front, especially in press-man situations, but his hip stiffness and lack of elite speed could limit him against dynamic route runners in isolated man schemes.
