Bashaud Breeland is visiting the Chiefs, but it sounds more serious than the usual meet-and-greet for free agents. Breeland has spent hours at the Chiefs’ Wednesday practice and is watching the club’s defensive backs go through drills, ESPN.com’s Adam Teicher tweets. Still, the team insists that no deal is in place just yet. 
Breeland recently left his Raiders visit without a contract and was said to have meetings scheduled with the Colts and Browns. Right now, it seems likely that all three teams will be left out in the cold.
This has been a strange offseason for Breeland, to say the least. After finishing up his rookie deal with the Redskins, he inked a three-year, $24MM free agent deal with the Panthers. However, the Panthers bailed on the deal after learning of Breeland’s off-the-field foot injury. Since then, several teams have shown interest, but his market stalled while he worked his way back to full health.
The Chiefs’ cornerback group has changed radically since last year, so Breeland would not be the only fresh face in KC. Terrance Mitchell, Ron Parker, Kenneth Acker, and Phillip Gaines all landed elsewhere while free agent Darrelle Revis announced his retirement earlier this week. The Chiefs will start Kendall Fuller and David Amerson at the outside corner spots with help from Steven Nelson and others. If signed, Breeland figures to see plenty of playing time, even if he’s not an every-game starter.
