Kansas City is planning to bring back one of their own free agent wide receivers, re-signing wideout JUSTIN WATSON to a two-year contract worth up to $6 million.

Got a big playoff game this week -- OK it's a 3rd-place game, but there's some decent money for that too -- but sadly, one of my stars, Chris Godwin, has already been ruled out. Getting Breshad Perriman would have been nice, but that didn't happen. Who to play?   more »
