The Kansas City Chiefs announced the club has released eight players. The biggest surprise is Damion McIntosh who was signed to a six year contract by the previous regime just two seasons ago.
Here are the list of players with my quick hits on each of them.
Offensive Line
- T Damion McIntosh - Probably about time.
- T Herb Taylor - Didn't quite develop.
- G Tavares Washington - Injuries during camp hurt him
- C Eric Ghiaciuc - Signed this offseason from the Bengals, who were happy to see him go.
Secondary
- Travis Daniels - Signed this offseason.
- Londen Fryar - Didn't make much impact during camp.
Running Backs
- FB Jed Collins - Only one fullback will be kept, looks like it's Mike Cox.
Linebackers
- ILB Corey Smith - Numbers game plus we didn't hear much of anything out of him.
That's 8 down, 14 to go. Who's next? The updated roster of 67 players is after the jump to help you decide.
Chris' predictions for the next 14 players cut have a line through them.
