Len Dawson had 5 pro bowls from 1966 on, and 2 before 1966 that I didn't count.
Mike Livingston had 1 pro bowl in 1969, when he kept the wheels on KC's Super Bowl season as a third string rookie when Dawson and Jackie Lee both were hurt.
Bill Kenney had 1 pro bowl in 1983 when he threw for over 4,000 yards. At the time, only three QBs had had 4,000 yard seasons: Dan Fouts, Joe Namath, and Brian Sipe.
Joe Montana had 1 pro bowl in 1993 when he led the Chiefs to the AFC championship game with a 4th down game-winning TD over the Steelers and a come from behind win over the league juggernaut Oilers.
Steve Bono made 1 pro bowl in 1995 when he and Derrick Thomas led the Chiefs to a 13-3 record despite the presence of Paul Hackett.
Elvis Grbac made 1 pro bowl in 2000 with a 4,000 yard season.
Trent Green made 2 pro bowls running one of the best offenses in NFL history, logging 2 4,000+ yard seasons.
Matt Cassel made 1 pro bowl in 2010, presumably because every other quarterback on earth was eaten by ligers.
Alex Smith made 1 pro bowl in 2013 after leading the Chiefs in a huge turnaround from 2-14 to 11-5.
