Chiefs sign former Raiders cornerback Routt
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Kansas City Chiefs signed free agent cornerback Stanford Routt, the National Football League (NFL) team said on Monday.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but a report on the NFL's website said the former Oakland Raider received a three-year contract worth $19.6 million.
"He's a talented player that has spent seven seasons in the AFC West, so he is familiar with us and our division opponents," Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said in a statement.
