• Former Chargers CB Casey Hayward tells Josina Anderson he knew he was going to be cut because the team was trying to trade him before making the move: “I’ve known for a couple of days. I know they were seeing if they could trade me, wanting to keep my salary the same. I’m definitely open to new possibilities now. I want to play at least a couple more years.”

Chiefs

Former Chiefs’ RT Mitchell Schwartz tweeted a statement in the wake of his release from the team.

“Thanks to the Chiefs for an incredible 5 years. The experience was everything I dreamed it would be and more. The organization, my teammates and coaches, and the best fans in football! My focus is on rehab and recovery – we’ll see what the future holds. Thank you Chiefs Kingdom!”

• Tom Pelissero reports that the Chiefs are not expected to tender restricted free agent TE Deon Yelder.
