Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe has spent eight seasons with the team since being drafted by them in the first round of the 2007 draft.

2014 was likely Bowe’s last season in Kansas City though as the Chiefs are reportedly planning to release him if they cannot trade him, which they are currently attempting to do.
Bowe had signed a five-year, $56 million contract with the Chiefs in 2013 but has failed to justify his contract in the last three seasons as he has failed to reach 1,000 receiving yards.
However, this is not entirely his fault as the Chiefs have employed a run-heavy offense with running back Jamaal Charles emerging as elite in the past few seasons.
Quarterback Alex Smith was unable to throw a single touchdown pass to a wide receiver in the 2014 season too.
Fortunately for the Chiefs, the 30-year-old receiver only has $20 million in guaranteed money, so the Chiefs will not have to eat too much money since Bowe has already played out two seasons of his contract.
