The Chiefs are expected to cut wideout Dwayne Bowe if the sides can't agree on a reduced contract for the eight-year vet, reports ESPN.com. Bowe is scheduled to make $10.75 million next season and $9.75 million each of the following two years, plus he's eligible for an annual $250,000 workout bonus.

All this for a 30-year-old receiver who got suspended for the season opener for violating the league's substance abuse policy, then failed to catch a touchdown in 15 games.

Bowe caught 60 passes for 754 yards, ranking second on the team to tight end Travis Kelce in both categories. Bowe's last 1,000-yard season came in 2011.

Bowe ranks second in Chiefs history with 532 catches, third in receiving yards with 7,155, and fifth in touchdown catches with 44.

He's gonna go to Baltimore or NE

 

[Codeine Bryant]

They should.

He's not worth the money he gets paid, but more importantly he's not even a $5mil player in that system.

And by system I mean noodle-arm Alex.

 

[King Crimson]

Blame Alex.

 

[Maude]

Blame Alex.

 

[Ronnie Lott]

Bowe should be thrilled to get the fukk outta KC with Alex Dilfer

 

[NatiboyB]

Yeah he's gone unless he's willing to take 2-3 mill a year.

 

[Mr210]

I would leave if I was him

 

[G.O.A.T]

The next WR besides on that team Bowe only had 16 catches for 260 yards
Bowe's probably doing everything possible to get himself cut away from Alex

 

[DPG4Life]

No sense in trying to trade?

These tidbits should tell you all you need to know.

It's lose/lose here.

If they work a deal, they will still suck.

If he leaves:
Chiefs will replace him with nothing and be better off running the Power I.
Bowe will sign to a team who will hate him when they see how many balls he drops.

 

[Street Knowledge]

It's crazy how in the NFL teams can basically say "take this massive pay cut, or we releasing your ass"

 

[The Goodz]

No WR will thrive with Mr Checkdown to Charles/Davis throwing the ball

 

[Flight]

He deserves a better QB.

 

[The God Poster]

Blame Alex.

Dude been garbage before alex
