Career teammates and draft class, derived from year-by-year rosters — every name is linked.
Chester inherited the Las Vegas Raiders DL room from Nolan Harrison (1991–1996), and handed it to Jerry Ball (1994–1996).
Chester inherited the Kansas City Chiefs DL room from Leslie O'Neal (1998–1999), and handed it to Derrick Ransom (1998–2002).
Chester inherited the Denver Broncos DL room from Kavika Pittman (2000–2002), and handed it to Reggie Hayward (2001–2004).
