Chiefs sign Wade, still unsure about QB

The Kansas City Chiefs shuffled in a new pair of hands Tuesday in coach Todd Haley’s continuing quest to locate an acceptable set of wide receivers. Still unclear is who would be throwing the ball. Haley said it was too early to know if quarterback Matt Cassel will miss a second straight start this weekend because of an injury to his left knee.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs shuffled in a new pair of hands Tuesday in coach Todd Haley’s continuing quest to locate an acceptable set of wide receivers. Still unclear is who would be throwing the ball.

Haley said it was too early to know if quarterback Matt Cassel will miss a second straight start this weekend because of an injury to his left knee. But he is hopeful of making a decision earlier than Sunday, when the decision was made just hours before the season-opener at Baltimore.

If Cassel remains out, Brodie Croyle would make a second start, this one against Oakland, after earning generally high marks in the 38-24 loss to the Ravens.

In the meantime, receiver Bobby Wade, a six-year NFL veteran with stops in Chicago, Tennessee and Minnesota, was signed.
