Shaun Smith hinted he was back with the Chiefs and the KC Star's Adam Teicher reports that, indeed, he is.
#Chiefs sign DL Shaun Smith for season's final 8 games. Could mean Glenn Dorsey will be out for an extended period.

It's good to have Smith back. He seems to bring some attitude with him. The Chiefs reportedly worked him out earlier this year but opted not to sign him.
This is also a sign that Glenn Dorsey, who re-injured his calf last week, could be out for a little bit. Both Smith and Dorsey are defensive ends. Dorsey missed a month with a calf injury and he apparently re-injured. His status is unknown but Smith's signing suggests he could miss some time.
It doesn't mean the Chiefs will start winning games, but I'm glad Smith is back in the fold.
