The NFL’s tampering policy is fairly strict on paper, but during the annual scouting combine, it’s rarely enforced, as teams routinely speak with agents of impending free agents.

That could change, after the Chiefs committed what appears to be multiple violations last week, in discussing the possibility of adding Colts quarterback Peyton Manning.

Asked about Manning, Chiefs head coach Romeo Crennel said he would be “crazy not to consider it” if the future Hall of Fame quarterback did become available.

Crennel tried to balance that comment out by saying Manning was still under contract and he didn’t want to discuss any other team’s players, but the league specifically prohibits comments such as Crennel’s, and could potentially dock the Chiefs a draft pick and/or fine them as a result.

Crennel’s comments came shortly after a report surfaced that the Chiefs have already spoken with Manning’s agent on two different occasions.

The Chiefs were successful in a similar tampering claim last year against Detroit, receiving a swap of fifth round draft picks from the Lions as a result of comments regarding safety Jarrad Page, who was under contract with Kansas City at the time.
