The Kansas City Chiefs have signed free agent wide receiver Ashley Lelie.

The Chiefs on Monday said they signed the seven-year veteran, who has caught 217 passes for 3,749 yards and 15 touchdowns over 107 games.

A first-round draft pick from Hawaii, he has played for Denver, Atlanta, San Francisco and, most recently, Oakland.

Kansas City also waived wide receiver Jeff Webb, who played 31 games in three seasons with the Chiefs, catching 36 passes for 382 yards and a touchdown.

Pretty happy with this all around.

Lelie gives up some more depth, and speed. Jefff Webb is terrible.

Not that Lelie is fantastic or anything, but it's an upgrade.

Yeah and we need it.

I really hoped that Quentin Lawrence would develop into a viable WR, he's so damn fast but has braylon edwards hands. I know at best he will end up KR.

Favre to sign with the Vikings pending a phsyical

the never ending story

Jordyn

"well guys now that training camp is over, I guess I feel like I can play football again!"

CrackedLens

Not a coincidence at all. 8-)

I said I'd believe he was really retired when he was dead.

Dynagrip

I can't wait for the further dilution of his "legacy".

somebody was saying that he wasnt going to come back until he saw how well the defense played and the running game was

he got those competitve juices flowing and blah blah blah blah hes like a kid out there

GRMike

Is it sad that I just picked him up for my fantasy league... just to see if he will score me any points... <.<

Hjorvarthr

And Favre will start on Friday against the Chiefs

Jordyn

I think Ben will probably be ordering that #4 JD Booty jersey tonight in protest.

If the Favre legacy was not ruined already, it is now. Permanently.

In the short term, probably. But I highly doubt anyone will remember it down the line.

Hoping the Vikes win the Super Bowl with Favre just to make statements like this look dumb.

Except they have no chance because not only if the NFC North pretty decent this year but GB put Peterson to sleep last year with half their starting defense on the bench, and now they've got the Favre playbook to read from.

He will be crushed.

Um, Adrian's stats last year against Green Bay.

Games: 2
Att: 49
Yards: 295
Avg: 6.0
Long: 34
TD : 2
1st: 13

If that's him put to sleep, well fuck, you better hope he doesn't wake up in any games this year. And this year, Green Bay is switching to a different defense. They might not have a problem with Favre, but don't act like they box Adrian up into nothing.

Hunter

Favre will gunsling a career high INT this year, mark my words.

Hoping, people - hoping. It is very different from say, 'knowing'.

Um, he had 103 yards at the game in Lambeau, and averaged 5.4 per carry and 1 TD.

So he would've had uh, 192 at the game in Metrodome.

But yeah, sure, if you want to say he was asleep then, that's cool.

CrackedLens

i never said he was asleep

i was just saying that most of those stats came from one game and not the other

Jordyn

Other dude said GB put him to sleep last year, dude.

Try to keep up.

Jordyn

I mean, honestly.

CrackedLens

when you quoted my post i thought you were replying to me

my bad i guess

Jordyn

replying?

CrackedLens

Jordyn

After reviewing the play on the field, Adrian just ran for 100 more yards! Yay!

CrackedLens

Noone will remember his annual will-he/wont-he holding a press conference to announce that he will hold a press conference to decide if he will maybe make a decision about retiring soon?


Fuck I don't even remember his career anymore. Just all this bull.

the wook

I haven't paid attention to any recent Brett Favre news

he's still a Falcon, right?

Kuribo's Shoe

no he's on the Bucs, duh

A Dabble Of Thelonius

He signed on to coach the Bucs. They fired all the backs and will field to QBs at all times.


/ huh, what are the odds.

He's burned about every bridge he could have in Green Bay after this stunt. He's a fucking joke at this point.

And if you want to tell me that this isn't going to ruin his legacy as one of the "classiest men to play the game" or whatever the fuck, you're being willfully ignorant.
