The Kansas City Star is reporting that the Chiefs are getting closer to signing wide receiver Az-Zahir Hakim. The paper says the Chiefs and his agent are talking about the possibility. Hakim played the first four seasons of his career with the Rams; the first two under Dick Vermeil. He was cut by the Lions after three years in Detroit.

Former Eagles receiver Freddy Mitchell, who visited KC on Monday, will not be pursued according to head coach Dick Vermeil.
