Priest is going to make good decisions. This guy is very unique. He does not expose a lot of himself whether he's running with the football or not. And I will not count him out on anything.
More Quotes from Carl Peterson:
We don't think this represents the conclusion to Mike's NFL career. By releasing him at this time we give him the opportunity to return to the Chiefs in the future if he can get himself ready to play.Carl Peterson
We fully expect that Larry Johnson will once again perform admirably in place of Priest, much like he did at the end of last season. Priest will continue to attend meetings and conduct his rehabilitation here in Kansas City. We fully anticipate that despite his absence on the field, Priest will continue to contribute to the success of Larry and our other running backs, as well as our entire football team. These are never easy decisions, but we believe this is the correct one for Priest at this time.

I would just say right now, if he had to start the football season, he couldn't because the doctors have not cleared him for contact. But we don't have to start right now. We'll see where we are in June or July.
