www.kansascity.com/385/story/511416.htmlChiefs miss out on Faine, ready for Falcons linebacker's visitBy ADAM TEICHER The Kansas City Star The Chiefs were anticipating today’s arrival of Atlanta linebacker Demorrio Williams as the NFL’s free agent market opened. The Chiefs were hoping for a visit from one of their other top free-agent targets, Seattle kicker Josh Brown. They never had a chance for New Orleans center Jeff Faine, who quickly accepted an offer from Tampa Bay. Dallas cornerback Jacques Reeves was scheduled to meet with the Chiefs on Tuesday. Their plans for Williams were immediately unclear. One starting linebacker is Derrick Johnson, who is only 25 and played well last season. But the Chiefs were disappointed in Napoleon Harris, who signed as a free agent last year. They are also concerned with the advancing age of the third starter, Donnie Edwards, who will be 35 in April. Williams, 27, started for the Falcons at outside linebacker last season.
