PRIEST TO CALL IT QUITS
A league source tells us that Priest Holmes will announce his retirement from the NFL during a Wednesday press conference.
Adam Schefter of NFL Network, citing an unnamed source, has a similar report.
Holmes re-injured his neck on Sunday. The neck originally was injured in 2005, and he was out of football for all of the 2006 season.
The former holder of the single-season touchdown record is signed through 2009. The Chiefs presumably could attempt to recover some bonus money from Holmes, but to do so would be a bad P.R. move.
