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.

It was an absolutely horrible decision, no matter how badly the Chiefs needed OL help.

That guy needed to be cut before he was ever signed.

This.

I thought he was a Fullback. OK, actually, I had no idea who he was.

Out with the old, in with the new

He was a waste.


Basically a piece of shit player.

Not surprised, Grubbs was on his last legs even when he was healthy, nowhere near his former Pro Bowl level play.

Bye Felicia.

Yep. That was obvious early on.

Not even close to as bad as the Dunta Robinson signing.

Fanaika was terrible, but he signed for peanuts...Robinson was trash and he signed for like 6m per.
