Patrick had great things to say about him in the presser today:

Now, he has a better opportunity to earn his starting job back, but its not going to be handed to him.
The Chiefs moved away from Damien when they drafter CEH. He would have been the starter last year had he played. I have no doubt in my mind about that.
I was with you up until the last paragraph. IMO, KC planned to use both Williams and CEH last season. Damien got banged up earlier in the Super Bowl Season, and CEH was a rookie and obviously had a learning curve. I think there would have been plenty of playing time for both with the idea that the Chiefs would get the best out of both RB's. [Reply]
