Kansas City Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli said Tuesday, Feb. 21, that signing CB Stanford Routt doesn't necessarily mean impending free-agent CB Brandon Carr will be playing elsewhere in 2012. Carr also said he wants to remain in Kansas City. "The signing of Stanford Routt does not impact where we're at with Brandon Carr. As a matter of fact, Romeo and I both reached out to Brandon yesterday as this was unfolding and talked to him," Pioli said. "I spoke personally with Brandon, and without getting into the details of what that conversation was, he knows and he's known before that he's someone that we want to try and keep here and he's still someone we want to keep a Chief."
