Chiefs Chiefs cut Jared Gaither

evolve27 · 11-29-2011, 07:14 AM

Once regarded as a potential cornerstone left tackle in Baltimore, Jared Gaither is now out of a job.

Per a league source, Gaither has been cut by the Chiefs, after committing a key false start late in Sunday night’s loss to the Steelers.

The penalty came as Gaither replaced Brendan Albert for a snap, with the Chiefs driving for the win. On the next play, receiver Dwayne Bowe apparently called for a deep ball and promptly changed his route, allowing the pass to be intercepted.

We’ve got a feeling Bowe won’t be cut.

As to Gaither, he’ll be subject to waivers. If he clears waivers, he’ll become a free agent.

In Baltimore, the beginning of the end came in 2010. Slated to move to right tackle (which typically entails a larger body) so that Michael Oher could flip to the left side, Gaither showed up for camp the size of a tight end. Back problems ultimately wiped out his season, and he found limited interest on the free-agent market.

See, this is why we lost. A penalty by Gaither and Bowe "causing" an interception. Palko was fine. Really. You'll see.

No. But we ought to coin "Maneater" as Maneri's nickname.

I lost a lot of respect for the announcers during the game when they did not recognize that Becht got in the way because he didn't know who he was supposed to block on that play. I saw it when the play was run live, watch his eyes, he thinks he is supposed to block the guy who got run out of the play instead of turning upfield and opening things up for a big gain. After several replays the announcers still didn't get it.
