KANSAS CITY, Missouri (Ticker) - Quentin Griffin is moving from one AFC West team to another.
The Kansas City Chiefs signed the reserve running back to a one-year contract on Friday.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
Griffin spent his first three years with the Denver Broncos. He began the 2004 season as Denver's starter and rushed for 311 yards and three touchdowns in five games. But he was then hobbled by an ankle injury and ended up missing five games.
Last season, the Broncos cut Griffin in September after he fell behind Mike Anderson, Tatum Bell and Ron Dayne on the depth chart, but re-signed him later in the month.
Griffin has appeared in 16 regular-season games and compiled 656 yards and two touchdowns on 179 carries. His best game came in the 2004 season opener when he ran for 156 yards against Kansas City.
Now the Chiefs will likely use him as a backup to Larry Johnson if Priest Holmes decides to retire.
Kansas City also re-signed long snapper/tight end Kendall Gammon to a one-year contract on Friday.
