Chief Make Room for QB Ingle Martin - Who’d they cut?
Not only did the Chiefs sign QB Ingle Martin to the active roster but they also promoted WR Marques Hagans, a former college quarterback at the University of Virginia from their own practice squad. [Bob Gretz]
To make room for these two the Chiefs released RB Jackie Battle and WR Maurice Price but have plans of adding them to the practice squad assuming they clear waivers. I tend to agree with some that we probably over value these guys because we are Chiefs fans and we know them better than anyone. With that said I think both should clear waivers and make it to the practice squad.
I am not sure that I agree with these roster moves. Were these two really the last two players on the roster? In my opinion the Chiefs need to make up their mind and decide on a return man. I don’t really care at this point if they keep Sams or Savage because both have almost identical stats but somebody just needs to make the call. And don’t’ forget after week 6 Kevin Robinson will have the option of coming off the PUP and staking his claim to the returner position. That is after all why we drafted him (as a return specialist).
As far as Ingle Martin goes, I will be shocked if he ever sees the field as a QB. The only way I can really see this happening is if all of our QB’s start dropping like flies. I figure once Brodie comes back Ingle “the Dingle” will probably be history.
