APBrady Quinn is going to Kansas City.
The Chiefs announced the signing of Quinn, a free agent quarterback who spent the last two seasons with the Broncos. In Kansas City he’ll back up Matt Cassel.
Quinn entered the NFL as a first-round draft pick of the Browns in 2007, when Romeo Crennel was Cleveland’s head coach. This move reunites Quinn and Crennel, who’s now the head coach of the Chiefs.
Although some analysts thought Quinn was poised for NFL stardom when he was at Notre Dame, things have not panned out for him professionally. In three years in Cleveland he started just 12 games and never distinguished himself, and in two years in Denver he never even got on the field for a regular-season game.
The 27-year-old Quinn has a career stat line of 184-for-353 for 1,902 yards, with 10 touchdowns, nine interceptions and a passer rating of 66.8.

Maybe this will be his chance…..does KC have a good QB coach?
Will there be an open QB competition?
Charlie Weis just asked Pioli if he could come back to KC.
Quinn>Cassel
ahhahahahahahahah
hahahahha
Pioli and Romeo need to let the failures of the past not be the failures of their futures. When will theses clowns learn?
Oh well, Just when they started looking like they wanted to win they waste money like this.
Great, now they have 3 crappy QB’s.
Now I’m done.
Quinn can teach Cassel a thing or two about checking down. Or maybe Cassel can teach Quinn a thing or two about checking down. It’ll be hard to tell which is which.
Will he get a real chance to play here or will the job be handed once again to a lesser player because of fan pressure?
Quinn is better than Flynn.
This is an upgrade over Tyler Palko for sure.
But they have Tyler Palko??????
The career that never was
Congrats Chiefs on landing the steal of free agency.
Quinn is a much better player than the one in Cleveland. He has all the tools.
Give him a chance to compete for the starting job in camp and preseason and you’ll be happy KC! Better than Cassel.
just another in a long line of heisman winning all time great nfl qb starting QB’s out of dame right? it starts with Montana then on to well, uh did I mention Montana? every year they have a can’t miss prospect go there who is going to win multiple heismans(hello ron pawlus) and national titles, from brady quinn to jimmy clausen. how has that worked out for them so far?
Leases quarterbacks have come back and proven themselves…give the kid a shot
Go Brady! Outplay the competition in KC…it’s your time man!
…your fan since day one in South Bend.
He’s going to back up Cassel, but who is Cassel going to back up? Neither are playoff caliber QBs.
Can we change the reddish-orange and yellow color scheme yet? What is a Brown anyway? Geez. Cheap-ass buckin’ Chiefs.
I believe Jim Zorn is their QB coach.
The Broncos traded Peyton Hillis for Brady Quinn. Broncos and Chiefs rosters continue to be surprisingly intertwined.
You are telling me that Quinn who was traded for Hillis are with the K.C. now?
Good thing Shaun Smith are no longer with the Chiefs or things would have been more awkward!
Good luck Brady – when you get depressed, count your money. You make enough to put you in the top 1%.
I wonder if Crennel will now give Quinn the starting job he promised to him before he got the pink slip from the Browns
How is the “now I’m done!” Comment not getting more thumbs up. Is everybody’s memory really that short when it comes to forgettable, low budget myoplex commercials featuring Brady Quinn in 2006/2007. Shame.
Well after this failure Brady can fall back on that ND education that they all think is worth so much. How’s Rudy doing these days, anybody know?
I just don’t get it. This isn’t open competition. Why not go after Alex Smith, Hasselback, or even Tebow?
One man’s trash is……well…..another man’s trash.
Why? Romeo..you know that old saying? The one- fool me once, shame on you..Fool me twice, shame on me?
Sign a qb from a division rival. As long as it was a bargain I’m okay with it
Quinn to Win! Chicks seem to dig him in every town he goes to.He’s a good dude. Too bad that doesn’t translate into wins. I used to date his hot sister when I lived in Dublin Ohio before A.J. Hawk Stole her away from Me! Still A little pissed about that one.

Quinn Fan-Boys are hilarious. He was worshipped in Cleveland and when he got into the lineup because the whole city was whining, he proved to be an expert at passing into d-linemens’ face masks. He just got the other side of the coin in Denver. He’s a backup QB.
Cassel needs to go but Quinn is not the answer.
Glad to see Brady is being given and opportunity!! He’s never been given much of a chance in my opinion.
This guy just never really had a chance.
good luck BQ
So who is going to QB the Broncos? At the moment they have no one. Since Tebow is going to be traded as soon as possible and even if Manning signs, you are going to need a real backup and not one of his usual backups-in-name-only if he isn’t ready to go when the season starts and when he goes down for the season/career.
wow, what a cake career.
This is monumental for KC! Create a culture of no competition waiting in the wings with an “Arena League” talent (at best) like Brady Quinn. Romeo is spending too much time fantasizing about Juliet rather than his football team!
More scraps from my Broncos. Tebow may be available shortly.
Glad Brady got out of Denver where he was never given a chance. Also glad he got out of there before Manning came.
Now Tebow will know what it is like to be replaced!! Wonder what the fans will say now.
Good Luck Brady!!
