According to published reports, former Patriots QB Matt Gutierrez has been claimed by the Kansas City Chiefs on waivers after being released two days ago by New England.
Gutierrez joins many of his former temmates, most likely thanks to former Pats Vice President of Player Personnel Scott Pioli who is now the GM there. As pointed out by Mike Reiss of the Boston Globe, Matt Cassel, Mike Vrabel, Vince Redd and Monty Beisel, all former Patriots, are now members of the Chiefs.
