The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, Maclin plans to reunite with Andy Reid in Kansas City once free agent market opens Tuesday.
Diehards Line:Mortensen added the Chiefs will have to clear salary cap space to get the deal done with Maclin. The most logical savings would be Dwayne Bowe's contract. ... The reunion with Reid has been mentioned as a possibility in the past, but the Eagles and Maclin both seemed to be working their way towards the wideout's return. In addition, the Texans had been planning to make a run at him. Sounds like the Chiefs, given their obvious needs at the position, were able to leverage Reid's past relationship with Maclin, who caught 85 passes for 1,318 yards and 10 touchdowns coming off a torn ACL last season, to get something done. ... Meanwhile, the Eagles continue to lose playmakers with Maclin, LeSean McCoy and DeSean Jackson all leaving over the last two offseasons.
