| DeVito |
Fasano, a former second-round draft pick from Notre Dame, has been
productive in the NFL. Over the past five seasons with the Miami Dolphins,
Fasano has averaged 35 catches and four touchdowns per season. After releasing
Kevin Boss last month, the only proven tight end on Kansas City’s roster was
Tony Moeaki, who has had some injury issues throughout his career. Fasano
should provide some nice depth at the position, and the Chiefs are now set at
tight end.
DeVito has spent the past six seasons with the New York Jets, where he
played under new Chiefs defensive coordinator Bob Sutton. The former undrafted
free agent has been a starter for the Jets over the past three seasons, and is
known for his versatility.
The signing of DeVito may be a sign that the Chiefs will be letting go
of Glenn Dorsey. Dorsey and the team could not come to terms on a new contract,
and the former first round pick has become an unrestricted free agent. Dorsey
has already planned a visit to the San Francisco 49ers, and it appears that his
days as a Chief are numbered.
Former Missouri star Chase Daniel was the final free agent acquisition of
the day. Daniel has spent his entire NFL career backing up Drew Brees in New
Orleans and will provide some nice depth to the quarterback position behind
Alex Smith. The signing of Daniel may mean that the team is not considering
drafting a quarterback at any point in this year’s draft, and that the team
will be resigning quarterback Brady Quinn.
