The Vikings running game got a huge boost Monday with the addition of guard Steve Hutchinson. But the team may not be done yet. Chiefs fullback Tony Richardson has a deal in place if he wants to take it and if it still applies after the Hutchinson signing.

Kansas City re-signed defensive end Carlos Hall to a one-year contract after his first season with the Chiefs was hampered by injuries. The Chiefs obtained the 6-foot-4, 269-pound Hall in a trade with Tennessee last season in exchange for a fifth-round draft choice in 2005. He had 20 tackles, one sack and 17 quarterback pressures in 2005.

TEAM NEEDS 1. Cornerback: With the cap-related release of starter Eric Warfield and part-time starter Dexter McCleon, the Chiefs have no proven player opposite Patrick Surtain. Bennie Sapp is a nice nickel back, but he might not be an every-play cornerback. Julian Battle was struggling to prove he belongs in the league even before an Achilles' tendon injury last May knocked him out for the 2005 season.

Dalton spent the last two seasons with the Chiefs after stints with the Baltimore Ravens, the Denver Broncos and the Washington Redskins. He allows the Chiefs to keep some depth on the defensive line, something the Chiefs sorely needed.
