I think the right play here is to let Jacksonville cut him, then if the Chiefs are interested, inquire about a Vet Minimum deal in order to "restore" his once shiny reputation.

Otherwise, there's just too much risk involved, particularly for a team that has their sights on a second consecutive Super Bowl victory.

I don't see much risk at all. If we got him for a 4th or 5th round pick then he'd be coming into a championship team where he would be facing empty boxes all season and wouldn't have to have as much carries as he would In Jacksonville, thus he'd be fresher during the season. Last season he was good and the tape and stats prove it.
