KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Kansas City Chiefs announced on Friday that WR Dwayne Bowe has signed his franchise tender.

Bowe has played in 75 career games (70 starts) for the Chiefs with 356 catches for 4,927 yards and 36 touchdowns during his five-year career. He has led the Chiefs in receptions and receiving yards in each of the past three seasons.

In his last two seasons, Bowe has caught 153 passes for 2,321 yards and 20 TDs. In 2011, he notched 81 receptions for 1,159 yards and five TDs. During the 2010 season, he recorded 72 catches for a career-best 1,162 yards and a franchise-record 15 TDs, a mark that led the NFL and included a stretch of seven consecutive games with a TD reception to set a team record. He earned second-team All-Pro honors and was selected to the Pro Bowl following his 2010 campaign.

His 356 receptions rank seventh in team history and his 4,927 receiving yards rank eighth in club annals. With 36 touchdown catches, he ranks fifth in Chiefs history while his 73 catches of 20-plus yards are third-most in franchise record books.

The Miami, Fla., native originally entered the NFL as Kansas City’s first-round selection (23rd overall) in the 2007 NFL Draft. He was a first-team All-SEC selection at LSU, where he caught 154 passes for 2,403 yards and a school-record 26 TDs.

Agreed. "Hey Scott, when does TC end?" Pioli: "Thursday why?" Bowe: "See you on Friday."

Bowe

Wylie

Boss
Maneri

There are many options and pkgs we could go with, with as many weapons we're going to have. This is the best, deepest, most balanced team we've had dating back to Marty (at least on paper).

Plus....

Bengals just waived former Univ. of Texas WR Jordan Shipley. Think he'd be a better WR option than Wylie or McCluster? I think the Chiefs are going to sign a couple more players once cuts come, esp in the secondary with the injuries we have there.

I thought Shipley was actually doing well. Guess i'm not current on my list of Bengals players.

Better then McCluster. BUT no even close to Wylie. Wylie is way to explosive.

Joe Reedy tweets that he "saw Shipley walking to the bus last night with a huge icepack on his knee. The knee was not responding."

they got off the ship before his knee crapped the bed again
