An Unsettling Pattern: Chiefs Become Chargers Who Then Own The Chiefs from FS Kansas City

There is no such thing as a truly evil ex-Chief, unless that ex-Chief is a Charger -- in which case, all bets are freaking off.

Chiefs Mailbag: Distribution Of Backfield Carries from Chiefs Spin

Two-time All-Pro running back Jamaal Charles remains the top backfield option. However, it wouldn't surprise if second-year pro Knile Davis, who is the clear No. 2 running back, sees more action in a complementary role.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid indicated that could be the case on at least two separate occasions during the offseason.

"Knile was a rookie and he was learning every week and getting better every week," Reid said on Feb. 20 at the NFL Scouting Combine. "As the season went on, we were able to give him the ball a little bit more. I think coming into this season, we'll be able to mix it up a little bit better than what we did early in the season last year."

Rookie Review: OL Zach Fulton from ESPN

Fulton's readiness to play, even as a backup, is difficult to gauge because linemen need to be in pads in order to make the best evaluation. But it's clear the Chiefs think he might be ready to make an immediate contribution. He's a strong contender to be the starter at right guard.

Hard Work Pays Off from The Andalusia Star-News

The opportunity to stay and work on getting back to 100 percent was just too appealing for Andalusia native and Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Nico Johnson.

Since the start of the offseason, Johnson has stayed in Kansas City and worked on getting better. During the preseason of his first year, Johnson suffered an ankle injury that set him back a bit.

"It's going well," he said about his summer. "I stayed out there in KC (Kansas City) during the offseason because I got injured last year (during the preseason). I just wanted to get my body back to where I'm comfortable and playing fast."

Leaving A Lasing Message from The Robesonian

Friday wrapped up Brill's ninth-annual football camp, which not only taught kids the game's fundamental skills but delivered a bigger message he hopes will resonate.
