Debating whether or not to bring Frank Clark back

Joe Rondone/The Republic / USA TODAY NETWORK One of the highest priorities for the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason was addressing the defensive end position. First, they cut defensive end Frank Clark and let defensive end Carlos Dunlap test free agency. With those two departures, the Chiefs would need to address the room. They brought former San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Charles Omenihu in free agency on a two-year deal. Omenihu brings a blend of inside-out versatility that the Chiefs' defense hasn't had since Steve Spagnuolo has been defensive coordinator....

The Chiefs have not promised Drue Tranquill a starting role

Photo by Cooper Neill/ Kansas City’s new free-agent linebacker discussed joining a division rival. Earlier this offseason, the Kansas City Chiefs made what seemed like a curious move, signing former Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Drue Tranquill in free agency. Appearing this week on the Ross Tucker Football Podcast, he discussed leaving the Chargers after four seasons — and why he joined a Chiefs team that appeared to have a stacked linebacker group boasting former second-round draft selections Nick Bolton and Willie Gay Jr. Even though he started 16 games (and...

Should the Seahawks consider bringing back Frank Clark?

Photo by Stephen Brashear/ Clark remains unsigned after he was let go by the Kansas City Chiefs. There are still several prominent names available in NFL free agency, and one of them is the Seattle Seahawks’ top pick from 2015. Frank Clark was memorably traded from the Seahawks to the Kansas City Chiefs, where he’s won a couple of Super Bowls and has starred more in the postseason than in the regular season. Even though the Seahawks added pass rusher Derick Hall through this year’s NFL Draft, there’s some belief that Seattle could use even more at the position....
