According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter (via Twitter), Kansas City has claimed WR Chris Chambers off of waivers from the Chargers, in a move designed to give the Chiefs more depth and experience in their receiving corps.

San Diego released Chambers yesterday, after the nine year veteran showed signs of struggle in getting open consistently, and while the Chiefs are currently on the hook for the $2.4 million he’s still owed this season, the move shows a continued effort by KC to upgrade their team talent wise at every opportunity.

It’s doubtful that Chambers will make much of an impact on the field any time soon, but that won’t stop Chiefs head coach Todd Haley from using him as early as next Sunday in Jacksonville. For their part, the Chiefs have yet to make any comment on their acquisition of Chambers, and likely won’t have much to say for the mean time, given their penchant for keeping things vague these days.
