Pro Bowl cornerback Ty Law agreed to a five-year contract with the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
Law will rejoin Herman Edwards, who coached him with the New York Jets last year, when the veteran came back from a severe foot injury and led the NFL with 10 interceptions.
Edwards, who replaced Dick Vermeil as coach of the Chiefs, is a former Pro Bowl cornerback and has vowed to revamp a Kansas City defense that the past five years has been near the bottom of the league.
The 32-year-old Law, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, will pair with Patrick Surtain in what could be the Chiefs’ strongest secondary since James Hasty and Albert Carter anchored the defensive backfield in the mid- 1990s.
Bengals: Officers trying to arrest Cincinnati defensive tackle Matthias Askew after a parking violation used a Taser to subdue him and charged him with resisting arrest.
The 24-year-old Askew struggled with officers trying to handcuff him Saturday night and broke away before he was shocked, police spokesman Lt. Tom Lanter said. Askew ignored an officer’s warning to move his illegally parked car and then refused to give his identification, Lanter said.
Askew, also charged with obstructing official business, was released on his own recognizance and was scheduled to appear in court today, a jail official said.
Browns: Cleveland signed second-round pick D’Qwell Jackson, a linebacker out of Maryland and the ACC defensive player of the year last season.
