According to a report from NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, Orlando Scandrick will be in Kansas City Tuesday night to talk to the Chiefs.
Veteran free agent CB Orlando Scandrick, released by the #Redskins today, is already drawing significant interest on the market. Source said the #Chiefs are the first team to bring him in for a visit, and he’s flying there tonight.

Scandrick, 31, is a nine-year NFL cornerback who was drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round of the 2008 NFL Draft. Released by the Cowboys after last season, he signed a two year deal with the Washington Redskins that included a $1 million signing bonus.
But now the Redskins have changed their minds:
#Redskins head coach Jay Gruden on the release of CB Orlando Scandrick: "It had nothing to do with his play. It was more of the rookies' emergence...it also gives Orlando time to get on another team."

Scandrick will now pocket the million, and look for a new home — starting with the Chiefs, who have something over $8 million publicly listed in cap space at the moment.
Here’s a quick rundown of Scandrick’s production over the years:
