KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) The Chiefs have cut defensive tackle Amon Gordon
and linebacker Leon Williams, a pair of veterans, while trimming their
roster to the 53-man limit.



Kansas City also put defensive back De'Quan Menzie, a fifth-round draft
pick who missed nearly all of the offseason with a hip injury, and
quarterback Alex Tanney on injured reserve.



Other players waived by the Chiefs include fullback Patrick DiMarco,
offensive linemen Darryl Harris and David Mims, and fourth-year safety
Donald Washington.



Safe for now is running back Nate Eachus, a rookie out of Colgate. He
won over players and fans with his spirited play throughout training
camp and the preseason.



Still, more roster moves are possible as the Chiefs consider other players who've been waived.
