The Chiefs lost their last nine games of 2007, finishing 4-12 in their worst season in 30 years. The 31-year-old Welbourn, who was released Thursday, started every game last season at right guard. Right tackle Chris Terry, a part-time starter, was let go late in the year. The Chiefs might also choose to not re-sign starting center Casey Wiegmann. Ky |
