The newest Chiefs WR, Bobby Wade, crammed the playbook and joined his team at practice in an effort to be ready to play in Sunday's game against Oakland at Arrowhead Stadium. "It'll be determined on my learning curve," said Wade, who signed his contract only the day before. "I'll put in as much time as possible to try to learn and get on the field as early as possible. Other than that, it's just about making plays once I get out there. I'm just going to continue to work, and we'll see where it falls on Sunday." Coach Todd Haley would like Wade to be available, if nothing else, as a punt returner, where the Chiefs have sorted through several candidates and found them all lacking. But Haley may give a game-day roster spot to Wade only if he can do more than return punts, so the ability to master at least a portion of the offensive playbook is important. "We've got to get him quickly into the mix," Haley said. "He's got some punt-return ability. He's done it at a high level at times. "If we are going to use him as a punt returner, he needs to be able to play some other plays. Five or six (punt returns) at the end of the day isn't enough. We've just got to get him up to speed fast." Source: Kansas City Star
