SB Nation reports that the Chiefs have a couple big names they want to sign and bring back in 2012, and that includes WR Dwayne Bowe and CB Brandon Carr.
Romeo Crennel’s interview with Soren Petro of 810 WHB was full of good stuff including the part where he said Dwayne Bowe and Brandon Carr — both impending free agents — are the first priority. “Those guys have done a good job for us,” Crennel said. “We would like to keep those guys in house. We know the free agency process is a difficult thing at times.”
GM Scott Pioli has said the same thing — that he wants to keep both of them. So we’ve established that the Chiefs will make an effort to keep both. Hopefully they will want to stay and we’re going to do everything we can to keep him. You just never know. But they are the first priority.” As for another Chiefs free agent, Crennel indicated that he would like to keep Kyle Orton as well. “He did a great job the three games we had him as the starter. He won two out of three. Not bad.”
