But because he has a skill set that nobody else on the roster has, and plays in a scheme that utilizes his talents perfectly, his presence on the depth chart is more important than anybody else in a Chiefs uniform. With that in mind, one would...

The Kansas City Chiefs have re-signed unrestricted free agent defensive back Travis Daniels. The team announced the move Wednesday without disclosing terms.

Players such as Vanover or Dante Hall caused stadiums to hold their collective breaths every time they...
