The Associated Press reports Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel was 10-for-25 for 97 yards with a touchdown pass and three interceptions Week 7 against the San Diego Chargers.
The Huddle Take: What a difference a year makes and switching teams for Cassel. The talented quarterback has struggled all season to find his rythmn which looks more and more like he and the Chiefs will likely continue to score fantasy points all season long. Cassel should be considered a No. 2 quarterback worthy of starting in certain matchups only at the present time.

Adam Teicher, of The Kanasas City Star, reports Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel was limited in practice Wednesday, Sept. 23.
The Huddle Take: Cassel isn't 100 percent healthy yet, and it was evident in some of his throws that he doesn't fully trust his injured knee just yet. Todd Haley has indicated he would go with backup Brodie Croyle if necessary, so if you're looking to Cassel for fantasy help this week you'll need to keep tabs on his status.
Posted: 9/23/2009 10:45am et
The Associated Press reports Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley said QB Matt Cassel will be the team's starting quarterback during Week 3. However, he left the door open for a change at quarterback. "You've got to ultimately do what you think gives your team the best chance to win," Haley said. "If that means another quarterback being in there other than Matt Cassel, then sign me up." Cassel had a quarterback rating of 66.3 during Week 2, while QB Brodie Croyle had a quarterback rating of 116.1 during Week 1.
The Huddle Take: Thus far Haley has backed up his big talk with actions, such as demoting star receiver Dwayne Bowe to the third team for much of the preseason. Whether or not he'll actually bench his (very) highly paid quarterback during the regular season after a bad game or two remains to be seen.

The Kansas City Star, reports Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley said QB Matt Cassel's (knee) status for Week 2 will not be decided until the morning of Sunday, Sept. 20. Haley still could not guarantee Cassel's sprained left knee is healthy enough for a game-day load. 'That's the safest,' Haley said. 'This will be a deal where we will have to make sure they're good to go.'
The Huddle Take: Even if Matt Cassel does start for the Chiefs in Week 2, fantasy owners should proceed with caution since he has not played in a while and has been limited in practice. Since Brodie Croyle played well in Week 1 it would not be a surprise to see him back under center for at least one more week while the team gives Cassel more time to heal.

NFL.com reports Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley said he wants to see more from QB Matt Cassel (knee) in practice Friday, Sept. 18, before determining his status for Week 2.
The Huddle Take: Not that you were considering starting Cassel anyway, but he should remain on everyone's bench this week.
Posted: 9/17/2009 4:31pm et
The Kansas City Star reports Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel (knee) was limited during practice Thursday, Sept. 17. Cassel said he was making good progress and his mobility is far better that it was last week. His status for Week 2 is uncertain.
The Huddle Take: It would probably behoove Cassel to get back sooner than later, because Brodie Croyle was surprisingly effective against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel was limited during the team's practice Wednesday, Sept. 16.
The Huddle Take: Brodie Croyle was surprisingly effective in Week 1 against the Ravens, so the Chiefs wouldn't be lost if Cassel took another week to return from his knee injury.
Posted: 9/15/2009 5:21pm et
The Associated Press reports Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley said he is not sure if QB Matt Cassel (knee) will be able to play in the team's Week 2 game.
The Huddle Take: You probably weren't going to count on Cassel anyway, but this should somewhat reinforce your decision to keep him on your bench.
Posted: 9/13/2009 11:58am et
NFL Radio reports Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel (knee) is inactive for Week 1. QB Brodie Croyle will start in his place.
The Huddle Take: As suspected Cassel will not play in Week 1. Brodie Croyle will get the start over Tyler Thigpen but should not be viewed as a very good starting option for Week 1 against a strong Baltimore defense. There should be much better options available for fantasy teams.
Posted: 9/12/2009 11:40pm et
NFL.com reports Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel (knee) will likely be a game-time decision for Week 1. 'I think this is something that will go down to the wire with the quarterback,' head coach Todd Haley said. 'On game day, we?ll still be trying to figure it out.'
The Huddle Take: This is a toss-up on whether Cassel will play but keep in mind he is going against the Ravens and will likely not post good fantasy numbers even if he does get the starting nod in Week 1.
