Player Notes
September 5, 2009
Ashley Lelie has been released by the Chiefs, according to their official team website. The team also cut cornerback Jackie Bates, tight end Tom Crabtree, defensive end Dion Gales, defensive end Bobby Greenwood, guard Darryl Harris, receiver Taurus Johnson, defensive tackle Derek Lokey, safety Ricky Price, running back Javarris Williams and receiver Rodney Wright.

Our View:The Chiefs lack good depth at receiver, but Lelie was still not expected to make the team. The rest of those cut had poor odds of making the Chiefs as well.

Ashley Lelie has inked a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, according to ProFootballTalk.com. Lelie worked out with the team last Thursday, and he will join them Monday.

Our View:Lelie has largely been a disappointment in his NFL career, and there is no reason to think he will flourish in Kansas City. With Tony Gonzalez now playing in Atlanta, the Chiefs have only one realistic fantasy receiving option, that being Dwayne Bowe.

Ashley Lelie reportedly auditioned for the Chiefs Thursday, according to Chris Hamblin's twitter page.

Our View:The Chiefs have poor depth at receiver beyond rising star Dwayne Bowe, but the 29-year-old Lelie only has 49 receptions over his last three seasons, and would not garner fantasy attention if he joins the team.

Ashley Lelie visited the Steelers Monday and could ink a deal with the team, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Agent Peter Schaffer said, "He had a great visit. The Steelers and I are going to continue to have open dialogue. I think there is some mutual interest, and we are going to keep discussing it."

Our View:Lelie is a deep threat, and the Steelers are looking for a replacement for Nate Washington after departing for Tennessee. Lelie would likely compete for the No. 4 role at receiver with Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes and Limas Sweed expected to occupy the top three spots.

Ashley Lelie has been placed on injured reserve with his calf injury, according to the Contra Costa Times. The club signed tight end Darrell Strong to the 53-man roster as the corresponding move.

Our View:Lelie won't be missed as he wasn't going to be a fantasy option over the final two games of the season if healthy. He only made 11 receptions over 13 games.
