Chiefs Update

Today, former Chiefs cornerback, Kevin Ross, was named as this year's Chiefs Hall of Fame inductee. He played 10 seasons with the Chiefs. For the full story, here it is.

Assuming that restricted free agents will still exist after the NFL collective bargaining agreement is settled, the Chiefs put tenders on some of their players today. Brandon Carr received a first round tender (meaning if a team was going to sign him, they would have to give up a first-round selection for him), and both Barry Richardson and Wallace Gilberry received second round tenders.

Chiefs players Kendrick Lewis, Donald Washington, and Dexter McCluster, are all planning to return to finish their degrees this summer. They left their schools as underclassmen to enter the draft, but plan on finishing up what they bypassed by entering the NFL before graduation.

Also dealing with Chiefs players, reserve linebacker Cory Greenwood accepted a one-year contract with the Chiefs. Greenwood was the third overall pick in the 2010 CFL draft before turning his eyes to the NFL, in which he had 11 tackles last season (mostly on special teams).
