  • Chiefs' C.J. Spiller: Inactive Saturday

    Spiller (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Titans, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Spiller found himself back in Kansas City earlier this week when Akeem Hunt (ankle) landed on injured reserve. That said, the backfield rides the coattails of Kareem Hunt, so Spiller's services won't be needed with strategic decisions made elsewhere on the game-day roster. Behind Kareem Hunt, Charcandrick West and Anthony Sherman will take any residual reps that don't go to the top running back.

  • Chiefs' C.J. Spiller: Re-signs with Kansas City amid backfield injuries

    Spiller signed a contract with the Chiefs on Tuesday, Terez A. Paylor of The Kansas City Star reports.

    The Chiefs were forced to turn to fullback Anthony Sherman as their top ball carrier in the Week 17 win over the Broncos, as Charcandrick West (illness) was ruled out in advance of the contest, No. 1 back Kareem Hunt was shut down mid-game to avoid an injury heading into the postseason, and Akeem Hunt exited with an ankle issue. Kareem Hunt should be back in the fold as the Chiefs' workhorse out of the backfield during Saturday's wild-card matchup against the Titans, but the team's re-signing of Spiller suggests both West and Akeem Hunt are at some risk of missing the playoff game. If both West and Akeem Hunt are unavailable Saturday, Spiller, who appeared in one regular-season contest for Kansas City before being waived in October, could serve as Kareem Hunt's primary understudy.

  • C.J. Spiller: Cut by Chiefs

    The Chiefs released Spiller on Monday, Terez A. Paylor of The Kansas City Star reports.

    During his fourth dalliance with the Chiefs in 2017, Spiller produced no yards on two carries and didn't haul in either of his two targets Thursday at Oakland. His release implies Charcandrick West has progressed enough in the concussion protocol to revitalize the team's running back depth. As a result, Spiller will remain on speed dial in the event of another injury in Kansas City's backfield.

  • Chiefs' C.J. Spiller: Limited action in return

    Spiller carried twice for no yards and failed to haul in either of his two targets Thursday against the Raiders.

    Spiller signed with the Chiefs this week with Charcandrick West (concussion) unavailable for the contest. It's unlikely he will receive many snaps with Kareem Hunt solidified in the lead back role, but he could see occasional snaps if West remains sidelined.

  • C.J. Spiller: Signing with Chiefs again

    The Chiefs are re-signing Spiller, Terez A. Paylor of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Spiller will sign with Kansas City for the fourth time in less than eight months, with the latest transaction presumably motivated by Charcandrick West's concussion. The Chiefs could deploy Spiller as a passing-down complement to Kareem Hunt in Thursday's game against the Raiders, assuming West isn't ready to play. The role likely would be temporary and doesn't seem to be of much interest for fantasy purposes. It's also possible the Chiefs simply allow Hunt to dominate snaps, given that he's proven to be more than competent as a pass-catching threat.

  • C.J. Spiller: Released by Chiefs

    Spiller was once again released by the Chiefs on Saturday, Terez A. Paylor of KansasCity.com reports.

    The Chiefs cut Spiller in advance of Week 1 in order to avoid owing the veteran back a guaranteed contract for the 2017 season. However, they subsequently picked him back up to provide depth at an uncertain running back situation. However, with Kareem Hunt's stellar debut in the opener, the Chiefs have opted to promote fellow running back Akeem Hunt to the roster in favor of Spiller due to his contribution on special teams. The 30-year-old will now look for a new opportunity.

  • Chiefs' C.J. Spiller: Back with Kansas City

    The Chiefs have re-signed Spiller, the Kansas City Star reports.

    The Chiefs dropped Spiller in advance of Week 1, but that move was made by the team in order to avoid owing the veteran back a guaranteed contract for the 2017 season. He'll now rejoin the backup RB mix alongside Charcandrick West and behind rookie starter Kareem Hunt, who starred in Thursday's season opener.

  • C.J. Spiller: Released by Chiefs

    The Chiefs have released Spiller in advance of Thursday night's game against the Patriots.

    The Chiefs' Week 1 backfield will thus be headed by rookie Kareem Hunt, with Charcandrick West also in the mix to work in a complementary role, while fullback Anthony Sherman is also on hand. Per Terez A. Paylor of the Kansas City Star, Spiller could potentially be re-signed to a non-guaranteed deal in the coming days.

  • Chiefs' C.J. Spiller: Back with Chiefs

    The Chiefs have re-signed Spiller, Terez A. Paylor of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Spiller was temporarily let go by the Chiefs, but whether they had eyes on another running back move, or Saturday's transaction was procedural, Spiller is back in the fold to provide backfield depth and experience behind Kareem Hunt and Charcandrick West.
