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.

If he did flex, did Pioli rip up the contract in front of his face after he did it?

Only that bundle of sticks billay flexes

I thought you had to sit out three days once you report? So the Rams game is out. He'll probably play against Seattle, and a little at Green Bay. He probably doesn't need a ton of reps, but he does need to learn the playbook with a new OC in town.

If you don't have even a hint of muscle tone does it really count as flexing?

If a candy wrapper appears in the stairwell, well.

Which is more than enough time for a 5 year pro.

good news!

Now for the daily meltdowns for 3 weeks when the practice reports state Bowe is running with the 2nd and 3rd team while earning his starting job back.

Who would have thought a veteran player didn't like practicing in 100 degree heat and sleeping in twin size dorm beds?

Bowe won't play tomorrow and can't practice for three days after joining #Chiefs, so don't look for him to play Aug. 24 vs Seattle
