NaVorro Bowman: 5 teams who could sign former 49ers linebacker

1. Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs are the last undefeated team in the league, and are pretty solid from top to bottom. Quarterback Alex Smith is playing like an MVP, and rookie running back Kareem Hunt is the running away with the Offensive Rookie of the Year race. Tight end Travis Kelce is playing as well as, if not better than, Rob Gronkowski. Tyreek Hill is as electric as ever.

On defense, Chris Jones, Justin Houston, Marcus Peters, and Derrick Johnson are making life hard for opposing offenses. The team is 5-0 and is definitely the team to beat, not just in the AFC, but in the NFL as a whole.

If Bowman wants to play for a legitimate contender and almost guarantee himself a playoff run, the Chiefs should be his top choice. He would be competing directly against Reggie Ragland, who is having an outstanding season, for snaps.

It would be mutually beneficial for Bowman and the Chiefs, who have given up 27 or more points in four out of five games this year. Granted, eight out of 13 touchdowns allowed have come in the second half once with seven of those coming after the game has mostly been decided.

Still, the Chiefs would not turn down a talented player like Bowman helping them take the last step necessary to running the table and grabbing a Super Bowl victory.
