Chiefs Waive Atiyyah Ellison One Week After Signing HIm

The Kansas City Chiefs signed DL Aityyah Ellison last week after trading away DE Alex Magee to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Ellison's stay in KC didn't last long as he was released this week, according to Adam Caplan of FOXSports.com.

Ellison was signed last week before the Chiefs played the Jaguars. Coincidentally (or not), Ellison most recently played for the Jaguars.

Todd Haley said last week that Ellison's signing wasn't about getting information on Jacksonville.

The Chiefs worked out at least four players in the last week -- WR Sam Aiken, WR Kelley Washington, LB Pierre Woods and S Gerald Alexander -- so those are names to keep an eye on.

Which position do the Chiefs need to upgrade? I could see WR being one because WR Chris Chambers has been inactive the last couple weeks.
