Sorry...I guess I was thinking it through and trying to determine who the new player addition might be.
I think this would be a pretty strange group of text messages though.
I was wondering why the Chiefs had not already put Juan Thornhill on IR. What advantage is there in waiting?
Then I was thinking, what are the NFL rules on adding players to your roster? Practice squads no longer exit for 20 NFL teams after the regular NFL season.
Actual NFL free agent players are pretty slim pickings at this time of year.
I did find a rule that prevents a team from picking up a practice squad player from a team you are about to play. It is a 5 day rule and it bumps to 9 days if you are on bye, which I guess technically Kansas City is. If KC did this, they would have to guess the team they might be playing.
