KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ The Kansas City Chiefs have signed
running back Peyton Hillis, giving the team a formidable duo in the
ground game with Jamaal Charles.
Hillis had a drama- and injury-filled second season in Cleveland
after rushing for 1,177 yards in 2010.
Terms of the deal weren't immediately disclosed.
He won a nationwide fan vote to be the cover figure for ``Madden
NFL 12,' but then rushed for just 587 yards last season.
Hillis sat out last Sept. 25 against Miami with a bout of strep
throat, an incident that didn't sit well with some teammates. He
also missed a treatment for his ailing hamstring when he left
during a work week to get married.
Hillis, a seventh-round pick out of Arkansas in 2008, also
played two seasons with Denver.
