VanSumeren reverted back to the practice squad with Kansas City on Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
VanSumeren was elevated to the active roster ahead of Monday night's 31-10 win over the Broncos, and he logged three snaps on offense. The fullback was also on the field for 22 snaps with the special-teams unit, securing two tackles, one of which was on kick coverage and the other on punt coverage. VanSumeren can be elevated two more times before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

The Chiefs elevated VanSumeren from the practice squad ahead of Monday's game against the Broncos.
VanSumeren was unable to win a roster spot with the Bills following training camp and the preseason, but he caught on with the Chiefs' practice squad after getting cut and will now get bumped up to the roster ahead of the season opener. If active for Monday's contest, VanSumeren will likely serve as a blocker on offense and be part of the Chiefs' special-teams units.

The Chiefs signed VanSumeren to the practice squad Tuesday.
VanSumeren was waived by the Bills on Sunday after failing to crack the team's 53-man roster, but he'll get a new opportunity as a member of the Chiefs' practice squad. He has appeared in 21 regular-season games across three seasons with the Eagles since entering the league in May of 2023 as an undrafted free agent.

VanSumeren (knee) participated in Buffalo's training camp Wednesday, Matt Parrino of Syracuse.com reports.
VanSumeren has fully recovered from the torn patella tendon he suffered last September with the Eagles. The 26-year-old is expected to serve as the Bills' primary fullback during the upcoming campaign.

The Bills signed VanSumeren (knee) to a one-year contract Wednesday, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Philadelphia opted not to tender VanSumeren after his third season with the team back in March, but it didn't take long for him to get another shot with a new squad. His 2025 season ended prematurely due to him tearing his patella tendon during the opening kickoff of Week 1, but in the two years prior, his elite speed, strength and explosiveness allowed him to earn opportunities on special teams.

The Eagles did not tender VanSumeren (knee) as a restricted free agent Wednesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
VanSumeren will therefore become an unrestricted free agent. The fullback tore his patella tendon on the opening kickoff of the Eagles' Week 1 game against the Cowboys last season.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|

“Value” is market slot minus our slot: positive means the market lets you draft him later than our blend ranks him. Ranks blend our projection model with ADP at backtested weights, the receipts are on methodology.
Trade value: what to ask for Ben
Our board has Ben VanSumeren at RB103, #365 overall in PPR, and the market leaves him undrafted. The market prices him about 36 picks higher than we do, so in a trade ask for more than his slot suggests: a fair return is a player the market ranks near #365, and you are giving up someone our model values as a #365. He projects to 110.1 points (floor 16.7, ceiling 167.3).
RBs in that range on our board right now: Brittain Brown (#351, CHI), Jawhar Jordan (#360, HOU), Michael Carter (#371, TEN), Amar Johnson (#374, LAC).
