Chiefs Hosted ILB Gerald Hodges For Visit, Left Without Deal

Terez A. Paylor of the Kansas City Star reports that the Chiefs hosted free agent LB Gerald Hodges for a visit, but he would up leaving without an agreement in place.

The Chiefs could use some depth at inside linebacker, given that veteran Derrick Johnson is working his way back from a torn Achilles he suffered late last season and Hodges is one of the best available options at the position.

Hodges, 26, is a former fourth-round pick of the Vikings back in 2013. Minnesota elected to trade Hodges to the 49ers in return for a sixth-round pick and C Nick Easton back in 2015.
