Chiefs release Ben Grubbs
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...iled-physical/
Just a year after trading for Ben Grubbs and giving him a new four-year deal, the Kansas City Chiefs are parting ways with the veteran guard. According to Howard Balzer of the Sports Xchange, the Chiefs released Grubbs on Wednesday with a failed physical designation. Grubbs played in just seven games for the Chiefs before landing on injured reserve with a neck injury. The Chiefs replaced Grubbs at left guard with Jeff Allen and Zach Fulton for the remainder of the season. But Allen signed with the Houston Texans on Wednesday, leaving the Chiefs with one fewer option to potentially replace Grubbs this season. Fulton and Jah Reid would be potentially replacements already on the Kansas City roster. Grubbs turns 32 on Thursday. He could still see interest on the market from line-needy teams if he can move beyond the neck injury that ended his 2015 season. |
Writing was on the wall once they re-signed Jaye Howard. Aging defensive tackles in today's NFL are a dime a dozen.

What is the cap hit on this move? Kind of a bummer deal. At least the trade wasn't for much

June 1 designation or nah?
Also, it's good to have a GM that's not afraid to admit mistakes. |

Well done, Mother****er. |
As I see it, LDT spent most of the 2014 season working as a LG, then moved to the right side last preseason.
Chiefs might move him back to the left side this offseason, with Reid taking over on the right. Releasing Grubbs was an inevitable no-brainer. |

Cant say I'm very surprised, or concerned... he was somewhat of a disappointment
