Nose tackle Jay Ratliff has met with the Kansas City Chiefs and Chicago Bears.

Ratliff was released by the Dallas Cowboys earlier this month with a failed physical tag due to a lingering hamstring injury.

The Miami Dolphins are also interested in Ratliff.

A return to the Kansas City Chiefs was widely rumored for Tony Gonzalez, but a trade never came close to reality.

The Atlanta Falcons are virtually out of playoff contention, but a low-round draft pick for Gonzalez wouldn't have been worth it in leaving Matt Ryan without another reliable receiver.

Gonzalez plans on retiring at the end of the season.

The Houston Texans will start Case Keenum at quarterback on Sunday when they visit the Kansas City Chiefs.

Matt Schaub has been struggling this season, but has been ruled out due to an ankle and foot injury.

"We're struggling, and we're looking for a spark," Gary Kubiak said. "I think he deserves an opportunity to go out there. It's a tough place to play. It's a tough place to get your first start and all that good stuff. But I'm not sending him out there by himself. I'm sending him out there with his football team, and the guys understand that."

T.J. Yates had been the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart.

The Kansas City Chiefs' fans will attempt to break the Seattle Seahawks' fans crowd noise record this weekend when they host the Oakland Raiders.

A representative from the Guinness Book of World Records will be on hand at Arrowhead to officially determine if Chiefs fans can top the 136.6 decibels.

The Raiders worked on fine-tuning their silent snap count this week.
