KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) -- The Kansas City Chiefs have signed two new players and are taking stock of an increasingly injury-wracked roster.
Wednesday, the Chiefs signed defensive end Jason Babin and linebacker Kyle Shotwell.
Kansas City (1-8) expects several starters to be out for Sunday's game against New Orleans, and defense has been particularly hard hit.
The 6-foot-3, 260-pound Babin was a first-round pick of Houston in 2004. He saw action in 47 games with Houston from 2004-06 and Seattle 2007-08. He played in two games for Seattle this season.
The 6-foot, 232-pound Shotwell was placed on the practice squad. He came into the league as a rookie free agent with Oakland in 2007 and was released before the regular season. He attended training camp with Indianapolis this year but was released before the season started.
