Chiefs John Dorsey confirms Houston will be a Chief next year!! - Page 4

Chiefs GM John Dorsey basically confirmed that Houston would be back next year when he was asked on 810 WHB's Border Patrol Wednesday morning if there was any chance that Houston is not in a Chiefs uniform next year.

"I would say no," Dorsey replied. "Truth be told, no."

I can only take this to mean that the Chiefs will use the franchise tag on him if they do not reach out a long-term deal with him. The window to use the franchise tag starts on February 16 and ends on March 2. From that point, the Chiefs would have until July 15 to work out a long-term deal with Houston. If they do not, Houston will play under the one-year franchise tender and they'll try again next offseason.

Speaking of that franchise tender, it's been reported that Houston's camp will look into whether he is considered a linebacker or a defensive end. This is important because last year's linebacker tag carried a $11.4 million tender while the defensive end tag was $13.1 million.

If there's any question of the Chiefs stance on this, Dorsey made it clear in his end-of-season press conference on Monday when he said, "In my opinion he plays outside linebacker in a 3-4 scheme. I think the last play in the game [Sunday]; He dropped in the flat. You missed that didn't you?"

Don't remember the the thread. Some thought he'd be cut because of price, but Tamba would stay.

It's nice to know he's not completely brain dead.

John Dorsey has also confirmed that Alex Smith is not the problem.

"We have to put some more pieces around him," Dorsey said of Smith. "I think he's lived up to what he thought he would be."

There is an article at NLF. com titled John Dorsey: Chiefs have work to do at wide receiver
The Kansas City Chiefs became the first team in over 60 years to go an entire season without a touchdown by a wide receiver.
