Over the last few weeks, scores of NFL player names have come across the NFL’s transaction wire as the free agency frenzy took over the month of March. What is lost in the process is every change of address involved, introducing players all over the NFL to new environs within which they must settle, select schools for their children, find friends and the like.
For some former players for the Kansas City Chiefs, the moves came swiftly. Steven Nelson was packing his bags for Pittsburgh not long after free agency began. Justin Houston eventually settled in Indianapolis. Many others are still waiting, however, with a cloud of uncertainty hanging over their short-term and long-term plans.
