Newsbreakers

August 17, 2008
The Chiefs want to see more of Tyler Thigpen before making a long-term decision on the second-year player as the team’s backup quarterback, according to the Kansas City Star. Thigpen played the entire second half Saturday, completing 16 of 27 passes with a touchdown. He also threw an interception, which was thrown high and tipped by receiver Bobby Sippio, but then returned for a touchdown. Thigpen also overthrew a handful of passes to open receivers before he found Sergiori Joachim in the end zone with 15 seconds to play.

Our View:Coach Herm Edwards said the team has not ruled out signing or trading for another quarterback, but there is no rush. He said if the Chiefs need another passer, likely a veteran, good players will be available when rosters are cut in two weeks. Damon Huard is the Chiefs’ third quarterback, but he did not play in Saturday night’s 27-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Edwards said Huard, a 12-year veteran, doesn’t need as many preseason snaps as Thigpen and starter Brodie Croyle. Edwards has said since training camp started that he wanted to devote more time to observing the Chiefs’ young quarterbacks, Croyle and Thigpen, who are 25 and 24, respectively.

August 5, 2008
Tyler Thigpen has passed Damon Huard for the number two spot on the Chiefs depth chart, according to the Kansas City Star.

Our View:Thigpen is getting most of the snaps behind starter Brodie Croyle. If Croyle falters for any reason, Thigpen could find himself in a starting role.

May 6, 2008
Adam Schefter of the NFL Network is reporting that the Chiefs believe Tyler Thigpen is good enough to challenge Brodie Croyle for the starting job this summer.

Our View:We know Thigpen made some good impressions as a third-string rookie, but it's pretty tough to believe he'll step up to a starting gig before Week 1. We'll see if he actually shows any signs of unseating Croyle once training camp begins.
