Kansas City has returned its son at wide receiver and hopefully, Andy Reid develops a role and utilizes him well.
Gehrig Dieter was brought back to the Chiefs’ practice squad on Monday, according to the franchise’s transaction report. A former standout at Bowling Green State University and the University of Alabama, Dieter was a hardworking player on multiple conference title teams.
He creates value at wide receiver and on special teams, as the Crimson Tide witnessed it first-hand in his lone season in 2016.
Hailing from South Bend, Ind., Dieter totaled four touchdown receptions and was a key factor on punt and kickoff teams for the Tide.
