The Facts:
With the future of Priest Holmes still undetermined, the Chiefs on Tuesday night acquired Bennett from the Saints for what is believed to be a future draft choice. Paperwork must still be filed with the NFL office and the deal is contingent on Bennett passing a Chiefs-administered physical exam. That should not be a problem since Bennett was already in camp with the Saints and practicing.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The subject of considerable trade talk ever since the Saints chose Reggie Bush in the first round of the draft, Bennett will become the primary backup to starter Larry Johnson. The absence of Holmes -- and the possibility that he might be forced to retire because of head and neck injuries sustained last season -- left the Chiefs thin at the position. Bennett's arrival (we'll confirm once official) pushes Dee Brown and Quentin Griffin down the depth chart.
