Chiefs sign Aaron Ripkowski to futures contract
 
Could this be the end for the sausage? He is turning 31 this year and Ripkowksi is only 26.

Sherman is a free agent isn't he?

Yeah Sausage is a free agent and definitely earned some extra cash with his pro bowl performance..sadly for him there aren't many teams that use fullbacks

Rain Man 02-01-2019 08:50 AM

Did everyone miss his pro bowl dominance?

He's been on rolling one-year contracts for a while now.

Had a big first game of the year then Andy forgot him. Terribly misused for shinier objects deserves to go somewhere he will be used. A luxury we cant afford.

How, exactly, would you have used him more? We lead the NFL in scoring and yardage.

As a FB, that’s not really anywhere in today’s NFL. Hell, he’s kinda fortunate to have a roster spot to be honest.

With a name like Ripkowski, how is he not a kicker?

Yep, your not fooling anyone with a FB in today's NFL.

Hard to pay a fullback 2 million.

This kid looks good, and plays at team min deal.

Done.

I think we fooled the Chargers pretty well with that pass down the sideline, where Sherm looked like Moss.

The Chiefs should have had him running the ball to use up clock on that last drive. Duh.

Move Shermanator to TE to replace Harris.
