What happened: The move was completed Tuesday night, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Media. Ezeudu had been listed behind Jermaine Eluemunor at right tackle while training at multiple positions.

Why it matters: Kansas City adds interior-line depth behind Trey Smith ahead of final preseason roster decisions. New York converts a former third-round selection into a future asset.

By the numbers: Ezeudu, 26, has appeared in 33 NFL games with 10 starts.

What to watch: Ezeudu's role behind Smith will come into focus as Kansas City sets its 53-man roster.
