Chiefs' Drue Tranquill: Logs 94 tackles in 2024
Tranquill registered 94 tackles (54 solo), including 2.0 sacks, two pass defenses and two fumble recoveries across 16 regular-season games in 2024. He added 25 tackles (12 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble across the Chiefs' three playoff games.
Tranquill finished the regular season as the Chiefs' second-leading tackler behind Nick Bolton (106), but the former led Kansas City in that category during its playoff run. Tranquill logged at least 40 defensive snaps in all but two games he played in 2024 and played a key role in the Chiefs' linebacker corps alongside Bolton and Leo Chenal.

Chiefs' Drue Tranquill: Gets first sack of season
Tranquill logged six tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one fumble recovery during Sunday's 27-20 win over the Raiders.
Tranquill registered his first sack of the 2024 regular season Sunday as he got to Gardner Minshew for a three-yard loss on the first play of the second quarter. Midway through the fourth quarter, Minshew was stripped of the ball by Mike Pennel, and Tranquill was in the right place at the right time to scoop up the ball, which led to a nine-yard touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to Xavier Worthy eight plays later. Through the first seven games of the regular season, Tranquill has totaled 38 tackles (24 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one fumble recovery.
