It's because his speed, quickness, athleticism and get off were wasted.
If we can get Glenn back on a "show me" short term deal, it could be an extremely high reward and low risk.
I doubt anyone else is willing to offer him a substantial contract at this point...it's worth the risk.

I don't disagree with offering Dorsey a contract; it ensures continuity and at the very least enables KC a solid run stopper. That being said, he'll never be an effective pass rusher, whether from the 0,1,2,3,4, or 5 tech. He just isn't good at it. His speed, quickness, athleticism, pass rush skills weren't wasted previously. He was given ample opportunities to show he could rush the passer from various techniques and he failed.
If you want to keep him as a 1 down player on a vet min contract to hold up against the run on 2nd down (the majority of teams throw on 1st down IIRC), that's fine. To expect him to turn into a hand-fighting, explosive, pressure machine from the 0/1 tech is entirely different.
