The Kansas City Chiefs have added yet another running back to an already competitive backfield with word that they’ve inked Marcus Marshall, formerly of James Madison, to a deal after an apparently successful tryout with the team over the weekend.
From Saturday through Monday, the Chiefs recently conducted their rookie minicamp, a three-day event in which 72 players ranging from recent futures signings to the team’s six draftees to 40 or so players invited to try out took part. From that group, the Chiefs hoped to cull together a dynamic rookie class to help round out the 90-man roster and provide plenty of strong competition in training camp.
