Chiefs trade Tony Gonzalez to Falcons

Tony Gonzalez is headed out of Kansas City.

The Falcons confirmed to USA TODAY's Jim Corbett that they have acquired Gonzalez from the Chiefs for a second-round pick in next year's draft.

Gonzalez, a 10-time Pro Bowler, has played in Kansas City since entering the league in 1997. He caught 96 passes for 1,058 yards and 10 touchdowns last season.

Holy cow

Is everyone in the AFC West trading away their playmakers?

Apparently

Poor Matt Cassel, he’s got nobody but Dwayne Bowe left to throw to. I still think they’re going to trade LJ away before the season.

Matt Ryan has to be doing backflips

A young QB’s best friend is a great TE. The NFC South just got even more competitive.

So....

I’m pretty confident that we’ll win 12 or 13 games this year. After this deal; we could probably take the division with 6, lol

Wow

this division just got even worse. KC better hope Bowe and Cassel have stellar seasons.

Winfield goes back to the wall. He hits his head on the wall -- and it rolls off! It's rolling all the way back to second base! This is a terrible thing for the Padres. - Jerry Coleman
