Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Dec. 8 (UPI) -- Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel underwent an appendectomy and is set to resume practice, the team said Wednesday.
A statement issued by the Chiefs indicated Cassel will be back in the fold almost immediately as Kansas City prepares to meet AFC West rival San Diego in a key game Sunday.
Cassel's absence from practiced was noticed Wednesday when signal-caller Brodie Croyle took the first-team snaps and Tyler Palko served as the back-up, the Kansas City Star reported.
The Chiefs come into the Sunday's game leading the division with an 8-4 mark, and Cassel has played a large part in that, throwing for 2,503 yards and 23 touchdowns with only four interceptions this season.
