Chiefs Trade QB Tyler Thigpen To The Dolphins For An Undisclosed Draft Pick

The Kansas City Chiefs have traded quarterback Tyler Thigpen to the Miami Dolphins for an undisclosed draft pick.

Thigpen was Kansas Citys third quarterback in the team’s 34-14 loss at Philadelphia this past Sunday, and he has taken only two snaps this season. Thigpen started the majority of the Chiefs games last season after Brodie Croyle and Damon Huard suffered season-ending injuries.

His mobility and improvisation made him a tough quarterback to plan for, and he led the Chiefs to a victory against Oakland.

The Dolphins reportedly lost quarterback Chad Pennington to a season-ending shoulder injury. Chad Henne had been mentioned as Pennington’s replacement, but Thigpen has far more experience as an NFL quarterback than the 24-year-old Henne, a second-round pick in last years NFL draft.
