The Chiefs concluded that Smith - Taylor makes more sense than Taylor - Niang. The Chiefs just dropped fair amount of money to keep Niang off the field, essentially.
Sure, it's possible this was just a depth signing, I just don't see it. The simple explanation that the Chiefs signed a LT to play LT seems clear to me.

There's zero chance he was promised a starting job. If he's one of the best five, he'll start. If not, he won't.
