Kansas City Chiefs Roster Cut Down Rumors Picking Up

It's two and a half hours after the Kansas City Chiefs had to get down to 53 players on the roster. That means eliminating 22 roster spots.

As of this posting, the Chiefs, Indianapolis Colts, Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars have yet to announce their cuts.

There are however some rumors picking up. We emphasize rumors here -- the Chiefs haven't announced anything yet.

The official Twitter page for UMass Athletics says, "Coach Brian Crist heard from Jeremy Horne, has made the KC Chiefs roster!" Horne is an undrafted free agent but I think a good chunk of folks figured he'd make it.

GophersIllustrated.com says nose tackle Garrett Brown made the Chiefs final roster (Update: Brown was released). Even if he were released he could be a practice squad candidate.

610 Sports' Nick Wright says Tyler Palko has been cut. That would leave the Chiefs with just two quarterbacks on the roster.

That's what people are saying but as of this posting the Chiefs haven't made anything official.

go tigers!

even though you looked like crap against a illini team that certainly isnt in their league…

he looks great so far...

but he was all but shoo’ed into the end zone that last scoring run…

by Abyssmal on Sep 4, 2010 8:37 PM CDT up reply actions  

Thanks!

I was thinking Thomas could be a Heisman dark horse this year, but he probably won’t get much mention coming from the little school in the Flint Hills in the town everyone assumes is in NY.

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 8:45 PM CDT up reply actions  

Huskers are best

Taylor Martinez is the real deal

by gochiefsgo on Sep 4, 2010 8:32 PM CDT up reply actions  

Huskers are *beast*

best could be too bold at this point

by gochiefsgo on Sep 4, 2010 8:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

umm

Huskers are playing Western Kentucky and I believe Zac Lee is still the starter. Let us know when you play someone. :)

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 8:34 PM CDT up reply actions  

Good that KSU won because...

…KU is stinking it up against a D2 (FCS?) opponent. At least one KS team will be decent this year.

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 8:37 PM CDT up reply actions  

not sure about that one

I’m not sold on Coffman. I think we’re an average team. If opponents defend our running game well, we’re in trouble.

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 8:39 PM CDT up reply actions  

Give Turner some time

Though he’s a Husker (cough), he’ll build a nice program.

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 8:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm sure he will...

…just won’t do it with this year’s roster.

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 8:50 PM CDT up reply actions  

Both KS schools will never be OU or UT...

where they just reload instead of rebuilding. Turner is a classy coach and in a few years the university and fans will be proud to have him.

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 8:53 PM CDT up reply actions  

My problem isn't with Turner.

I like Turner as a coach. I liked what he did at Buffalo even though he had a losing record. I just don’t think he has the players he needs to be able to compete this year. Seriously, if they don’t beat NDSU tonight, who do they beat?

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 8:55 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm sorry...

I just saw the score and thought they might have mistook the score for Royals vs. Tigers. Honestly though, everyone will have years like this. Take each game with a teaspoon of sugar and hope that they improve week to week as opposed to just looking at W’s and L’s.

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 8:58 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm just glad I'm not at Memorial Stadium right now.

I almost went to KU, and essentially back home, for my PhD, but decided against it. Otherwise, I’d be at the game instead of watching online.

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 9:04 PM CDT up reply actions  

I really liked the Turner Gill hire. Still do. I have a lot of faith in him.

But I’m still not sold on moving our top rusher from last year from halfback to linebacker. The fact that our ground attack was terrible tonight doesn’t do much to dissuade me of those doubts, either…

by MtHammer on Sep 4, 2010 10:44 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm suprised no one has mentioned...

…that Utah State is giving Oklahoma a run for its money.

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 8:53 PM CDT up reply actions  

I wonder...

If OU’s defense is that bad or if the Aggies are saying there’s more football in Utah other than the Utes and the Cougars

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 9:06 PM CDT up reply actions  

Utah State is decent...

…but I wonder about OU’s defense this year in Big 12 play. I think they’ll get beaten up on a regular basis and have to have their offense bail them out.

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 9:07 PM CDT up reply actions  

Come to think of it...

that’s pretty common for them. Their defense is average, but the offense just out guns the other teams offense.

by Chief Willie Wildcat on Sep 4, 2010 9:11 PM CDT up reply actions  

I think that's why...

…UT has gotten a knack for developing pass rushers.

by Setherick on Sep 4, 2010 9:13 PM CDT up reply actions  

why is it...

that a deadline can pass two hours and a handful of teams can still not “disclose” or “announce” their cuts… seems like a convenient way to get some extra time to make your choices…

by Abyssmal on Sep 4, 2010 8:30 PM CDT reply actions  

We want to be the last team to announce...

Pioli wants every split second advantage in checking the waiver wire.

From twitter

JoshLooney 13 #Chiefs Released: C. Brown, G. Brown, Gales, B. Greenwood, D. Harris, Herron, Lokey, Morgan, Palko, Price, Tucker, Walters and J Williams

by ufc4 on Sep 4, 2010 8:30 PM CDT reply actions  

Irritated by the Walters cut

They carried him on the roster all year last year because they were afraid someone would take him only to cut him this year.

Poor Javaris Williams. How many times has he been cut now?

by ChiefDJ on Sep 4, 2010 8:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

nah

he’ll go to PS

Seriously, when have I ever been sarcastic?

by Leaf on Sep 4, 2010 8:35 PM CDT up reply actions  

Harris and Brown...wow...both brown's?

so glad to see morgan on that list

not as stoked for williams

Team Pioli/Haley. Decade of the Chiefs.

Damn

I was hoping Harris was headed to IR.

We are definitely short at o-line now.

Leaves us with

Albert, Richardson and O’Callaghan at tackle.

Waters, Lilja and Asamoah at guard.

Wiegmann and Niswanger at center.

by bh13 on Sep 4, 2010 8:39 PM CDT up reply actions  

We probably...

claimed a tackle off waivers. No way we go into the season with only 8 OL
