First Brodie Croyle and now Damon Huard is gone for the rest of the 2008 season, supposedly with an injured hand. That leaves the Kansas City Chiefs with Tyler "Bones" Thigpen, just-signed former Jaguar Quinn Gray and Ingle Martin. Thigpen will start, with Martin as the backup and Gray as the #3 QB.
Here's the only link I can find to this online, which is from The Fort Mill Times . I have confirmed this elsewhere though.

News out of Kansas City is that the Kansas City Chiefs have fired Herm Edwards. Edwards was 15-33 after only 3 seasons in KC. This should not come as a surprise to anyone after the hiring last week of Scott Pioli as GM of the team.
“Since my arrival last week, Herm and I have had several conversations as part of my overall evaluation of the football operation,” Pioli said in a statement. “After careful consideration, Clark and I felt that it was best to make a change. What I conveyed... Read Full Story
The Kansas City Chiefs enter the off season full of questions, Who will be the next G.M.? Will the next G.M. keep Herm Edwards? Is Tony G going to stick around? Will L.J. finally get his wish to play for another team? But one of the most intriguing storylines of the off season will be what the Chiefs do at the QB position.
The Chiefs will have their shot at either Matt Stafford of Georgia or Sam Bradford of Oklahoma with the # 3 pick in the draft, there is no question the Chiefs will need... Read Full Story
Week Two is upon us in the National Football League, and the landscape due to injuries have changed teams outlooks already. Last week the season started for me with a 10-6 mark vs the spread (losses - Cincy, New England, Detroit, SD, Indy, Minn). Here we go with what should be a very interesting week two around the NFL.

The Chiefs made some roster moves today of note, as they cut three veterans, releasing quarterback Damon Huard, cornerback Patrick Surtain and linebacker Donnie Edwards. They are the first major moves by new general manager Scott Pioli, who is revamping a team that finished 2-14 last season.
The team will save about $9 million with the release the highly paid veterans. Huard, 36, signed a two-year, $7.5 million deal two years ago. The eight-year veteran threw for 477 yards with two... Read Full Story
Linebacker Takeo Spikes re-signed on Wednesday with the San Francisco 49ers, who also signed veteran quarterback Damon Huard shortly after being spurned by Kurt Warner. Spikes got a two-year deal reportedly worth $6 million to return to the 49ers, who signed him during the preseason last summer. The 11-year pro was a productive tackler and a valuable leader while playing alongside Pro Bowl linebacker Patrick Willis, finishing second on the roster with 96 tackles and making three...

Our options are incredibly limited at this point but Quinn Gray figures to see some playing time at some point in 2008. He most recently saw action with the Jacksonville Jaguars last season actually winning 2 of his 4 starts.
Chiefs fans will remember him for his near comeback against us in the last week of the 2006 season in which he led the Jags back from an 18 point deficit only to fall by 5 points (and then we made the playoffs!).

Choices have been made and pink slips have been handed out, playbooks handed in and lockers cleaned out. The Chiefs have decided what offensive players they want to take into Foxboro. For the most part the roster moves and cuts went as expected but there was a few head scratchers. Why keep two return specialists when you need bodies at other positions? How can you not find a spot for Bobby Sippio all he does is catch the football and the fans loved him, he definitely could have helped Carl... Read Full Story
