Stallworth To Work Out With Mystery Team Wednesday*UPDATE*

by Chiefs

Free agency doesn’t start until March 5th. Probably the only think that might happen before then is that someone will sign Dante Stallworth.

Stallworth’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus  told the Boston Globe that Dante would work out for an unnamed team on Wednesday. He went on to say that the receiver received multiple calls from teams and that he expected Stallworth to be signed in the next couple of weeks at the latest.

Rosenhaus is probably full of it to some degree here. I don’t doubt that some teams have called to inquire about Stallworth but to act as if teams are clamoring all over themselves to sign a PR nightmare who has been out of football for a year and is in his 30′s is a little hard to believe.

We’re covering this mainly because of Stallworth’s Pioli connection. That and the fact that the Chiefs need receivers worse than Peyton Manning needs that interception back. OK, maybe not that bad.

We’ll keep an eye on things. The vultures are likely to be out at the airports tomorrow looking to see where Stallworth lands.

***UPDATE***

Pro Football Talk is reporting that the “mystery team” is the Lions. Thanks to staff member Jeremy for the tip in the comments.

"Snotty." Spec-tacular! Always nice to be appreciated. However, for the record, "Redeemer" is Mike Brown's own term for himself and his habit of signing troubled players. If Cincinnati isn't interested in Stallworth, especially considering their desperate needs at WR, I would be stunned. Donte fits the profile perfectly. Talent + no options = cheap signing for Mike! Usually this strategy blows up in the team's face, but the last couple years it's worked out (see Benson, Cedric and Johnson, Tank).

Of course, if they don't get Stallworth, there's always T.O...

Calm down there, Tiger... you're comment in the first place was snotty. Chill out, it's a Chiefs' forum. You don't need to be so cynical.

All ya'll calm down or I'll bust out the moderation hammer. It's big.

Play nice.

Yeah, he'll work out with the Lions...and the sign with my Bengals. Mike Brown the Redeemer is poised to strike again!

for the record I say we pass too

PFT reported it was the lions

Relax it is a workout with the Lions

that was kinda my point d bag. im saying we dont need anybody like him in our locker room.

I really have no response to Matt (since it's blindly exaggerated), but I do have a problem with signing Stallworth. He really wasn't much anywhere he's ever played. He was at his best at the slot, but I don't think at his age and with a year out of football he will ever be as effective (or lack thereof) as he was in his prime. There are much better options for this kind of talent -- namely through the draft.

yes because thats all the chiefs need. another wr in his 30s...and a murderer! AWESOME! between bowe and his illegal drugs and stallworth killing every pedestrian he sees, our offense should be fantastic!!!!
