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.

We do not talk about (retirement), ... We'll talk about that at the conclusion of the season. But I have to prepare that he will not be here. This is the end of his contract.

Chiefs president Carl Peterson was even less diplomatic. Lamar Hunt was the guy who founded (the AFL), ... Al Davis started in this league as an assistant coach. I don't know that Al Davis ... has ever really taken a moment to say to Lamar Hunt, Hey thank you, on behalf of myself and my family for starting the American Football League and allowing me an opportunity to do the things I've always wanted to do.'
