Verran Tucker-WR-Chiefs Oct. 23 - 8:25 pm et

The Chiefs promoted WR Verran Tucker from the practice squad, and cut WR Jeremy Horne.
Neither Horne nor Tucker have any fantasy value whatsoever as Kansas City's fifth wideout.

I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up on the practice squad

Hmm... I'm just a bit shocked to see he'd be cut....

Interesting.
Has he touched the ball this year?

But he was so promising ROFL

He has one pass thrown to him that I know of, and Cassel being Cassel, overthrew it.

He was wide open, that I know.

Maybe Verran Tucker can get some playing time!

You know it's coming. People are so desperate for a big play guy to come from the undrafted ranks. The Chiefs have had so many of these prospies come in only to cut them that season or a season later when a flashier undrafted guy shows up and eventually does nothing.

By the way, does anybody know the last first year undrafted WR to catch a pass for the Chiefs?

Richard Smith in 2004.

These guys never work out. There are far more Jeremy Hornes than there are Miles Austins.

Want to know an undrafted WR who is currently kicking ass for the Chiefs and has actually caught something besides a cold recently?

I still think Richard Smith has some potential for us.

Fescoe said he saw Horne in a walking cast this week. Probably an injury thing.

As reported here this past week, Horne had an apparently injured right foot/ankle. Chiefs didn't appear willing to wait on him to heal

That sucks I liked Horne and thought he had a lot of potential.

Yeah, I'm sure it has nothing to do with us having like three WR's last week because Horne was hurt and inactive... and Chambers being on and off the field with an injury last week too. He will be on the PS.

Better known as an injury settlement. YEAH.......... gonna guess most teams dont pick up guys that are injured..... at least not guys at his level.

Thank GOD we still have Copper!Curious. You mock Copper's presence on this team while you should be damned thankful such a fine player is a Kansas City Chief.

"Know your role. Do your job." Nobody fulfills this mantra on the team better than Terrance Copper.

He will be on the PS.He'll be on the PS, carried over into next season's roster, and continually held up as a hidden star by all fans who think this is Narnia and that fantasy and illusion matter.

He's never shown the fans or coaching staff outside of athletic measurables that he can play WR in this league. A similar scenario would be the beginning of the 2008 season, where both Croyle and Huard go down to injury, but Tyler Thigpen had already gone down in practice a week or two earlier. So the coaching staff cuts Thigpen and people say, "Hey, he was probably better than Croyle or Huard and might have been a good player."

Might have yes. Maybe in a few years Horne can be a special teams contributer like Copper and see the field on blocking routes like the ones Sippio ran some years ago. And maybe by that time some large morsel of meat falls off the dinner plate into his hands and he catches it just like that one (emphasis on singular) incredibly easy TD catch in preseason. That would make his career, what... an UDFA WR who participates on special teams, blocking, and has few catches and scores to his name in his entire career.

Terrence Copper. Horne is Terrence Copper, whom you all hate.

Interesting.
