Chiefs Workout 4 Players
The Chiefs have been sifting through the pile of released players around the league and had at least four of them in for workouts. They were:
- LB Bobby Carpenter β 6-2, 249 pounds, 7-year veteran from Ohio State who was released by New England.
- CB Chris Carr β 5-10, 181 pounds, 8-year veteran from Boise State who was released by Minnesota.
- CB Dominique Franks β 6-0, 197 pounds, 3-year veteran from Oklahoma who was released by Atlanta.
- LB Bryan Kehl β 6-2, 244 pounds, 5-year veteran from Brigham Young who was released by Washington.
I don’t know too much about the others, but Carpenter was a big bust for a first round pick in Dallas. I can’t imagine him displacing any of KC’s LBs.
Here’s an interesting overview of the Chiefs from the Falcon’s braintrust: http://blogs.ajc.com/atlanta-falcons-blog/2012/09/05/atlanta-falcons-preview-of-the-kansas-city-chiefs/?cxntfid=blogs_atlanta_falcons_blog
They must be working out vetran O-line free sgents in secret? Right? I want to believe.
I would say – Really, what is this love affair with LBs? But if Pioli can find a “player” to replace a guy, got to hand it to him.
Well, NY giants are short LBs big time, Let’s see if any of these LBs go there?
