The Facts: Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports the team visited with Brandon Tate recently.

Diehards Line:As PFT reminded readers, the Chiefs didn’t get any touchdown catches from their wide receivers in 2014, which left the position as an obvious area to look for help this offseason. Kansas City signed Jeremy Maclin away from the Eagles and re-signed Jason Avant to continue the veteran’s long relationship with Andy Reid, but their ongoing interest is improving the position is understandable. Tate caught 17 passes for 193 yards and a touchdown in 16 appearances for the Bengals last season, modest totals that represented a big jump over the 14 catches he mustered while playing every game in the three previous seasons. Speed has been his calling card in the NFL, but those catch totals illustrate how rarely it has led to big plays on offense. Tate’s main role in Cincinnati came as a punt and kickoff returner, but the Chiefs are well stocked at those spots with De’Anthony Thomas and Knile Davis.
