This deal with Bowe allows Chiefs to tag OL Branden Albert.

They also reached an agreement with P Dustin Colquitt. He is now the highest-paid punter in the NFL. The agreement is a 5-yr, $18.75 million deal, including $8.9 million guaranteed.

It has been reported that the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers are poised to make a deal on March 12th when the League Year officially in the NFL.

The 9ers will send former first round draft pick QB Alex Smith to Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs.

NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport reported the compensation is a second-round draft pick in 2013 and a conditional draft pick in 2014. Glazer’s wording suggests that a new contract could be coming for Smith, who was due $7.5 million in the final year of his deal. The Chiefs wouldn’t give up this much in the draft for a one-year rental.

So, the first piece of the puzzle has been placed….more to come for sure!

Former Giant is out for Season with Head Injury

Mike Ferrara — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 13:25:45 +0000

Kevin Boss had high hopes for the 2012-2013 NFL season after signing a 3 year, $9 million deal with the Kansas City Chiefs in this past off season. Unfortunately for the ex-New York Giant, those hopes were diminished yesterday.

Boss sustained a serious concussion in Week 2 vs. the Buffalo Bills. After not being able to pass a concussion test since, the doctors decided they would not clear Boss for the rest of the season. Based off of that, Chief’s head coach Romeo Crennel placed him on the injured reserve, abrubtly ending his season.

The injury is a huge blow to the Chief’s offense, who lead the league in turnovers. Boss was set to be a safety net for Matt Cassel, who has been struggling mightily.

Boss played four seasons with the Giants and was a key contributor to their post season run in the 07-08 season, in which they went on to win the Super Bowl in dramatic fashion. Best wishes go out to Kevin and his family in what could have been his last NFL snap of his career.
