KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -Back from his second suspension in two years, there is a great deal that Kansas City Chiefs tackle John Welbourn does not want to discuss. After stiff-arming reporters for a week since he rejoined the Chiefs, the offensive lineman spoke for the first time Thursday, musing about how his time away gave him fresh perspective on a football player's life. What he would not talk about, however, was his retirement, unretirement and subsequent six-game suspension. All questions concerning th |

ST. LOUIS (AP) -A week after LaDainian Tomlinson steamrolled the St. Louis Rams, along comes Larry Johnson to administer more punishment. Johnson, the Kansas City Chiefs' 230-pound feature back, likely is licking his chops. He had 155 yards on a franchise-record 39 carries and caught two passes for a total of 41 touches last week against the Seahawks, yet claimed no soreness the next day. ``My body feels fine,'' Johnson said. ``I don't get hit. I give hits. I don't have to spend extra time anywhere.'' Ex |

Following that theme, he attached no special significance to this week's game against the intrastate rival Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs beat them 16-12 in the preseason in the annual ``Governor's Cup'' game. ``I know it's a big rivalry here, but it's just another game to us honestly,'' Bulger said. ``They've had our number in the preseason and they always play well aga |

UP NEXT: THE CHIEFS Luckily for the Rams, their game against the Kansas City Chiefs next week will be a home contest. Nobody wants to play on the road at Arrowhead.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -The Kansas City Chiefs cleared Damon Huard to start at quarterback against Seattle after he worked out Sunday morning.

Green was inactive for the sixth straight week and is not expected to get back on the field until late November. Other inactives for Kansas City included cornerback Benny |
