Posted in The Boston Globe speculates that QB Matt Cassel could be on the hot seat soon if the team doesn’t start winning:
Quarterback Matt Cassel is safe with the Chiefs for now but he could find himself in the hot seat real fast after the team gave up the 34th selection in 2009 (with Mike Vrabel also coming over) if he doesn’t begin to produce wins. While the financial cost was steep, the Chiefs will have to make a decision on Cassel next year at this time, when a $7.5 million option bonus is due. Kansas City maintains it is committed to the ex-Patriot, but this bears watching.
