Note: No official word yet on this signing but Sippio's agent said he will "definitely will be playing with the Chiefs [this] season."
**UPDATE Monday PM** Sippio has officially signed with the Chiefs.
Well isn't this every Arena League player's dream:
"Good things come to those who work hard, stay focused and are patient," Sippio said. "I enjoyed the time I spent with the Rush. They gave me an opportunity to perform, and I gave it all I've got. I plan to do the same thing for the Chiefs."

Sippio did something right last year to come up with 25 less receptions last year than he did in the previous three years combined. I'm excited to see what he can do. Check out this video of some of his highlights. Its worth almost just for the play where he jumps over a defender.
Sippio is 6-3, 225 pounds. Lets put two and two together and say that the Chiefs obviously aren't happy with their current crop of wide outs. Game on Saturday, this kid was signed on Sunday. That highlight clip really makes me anxious to see what he can do.
