Known as the ultimate businessman for the first 10 years of his NFL career, Darrelle Revis put his raw passion for football on display Wednesday upon signing with the Kansas City Chiefs.
"The reason for me returning is the fire I have, the fuel I have to continue to play this game at a high level," the seven-time Pro Bowl cornerback said, according to ESPN's Adam Teicher.
Revis signed what's been reported as a two-year contract with the Chiefs that includes zero guaranteed money, a stray from the business-minded approach he became famous for earlier in his career.
The 32-year-old isn't sure what role Kansas City will carve out for him, but head coach Andy Reid indicated Revis could step into the starting lineup.
"My role is to help win," Revis told reporters. "Whatever is best for the team, whether my position is playing a few downs or playing in the slot - wherever coach wants to play me and feels he can utilize me to help win.''
Revis noted he's lost weight since the end of last season, saying he's down to 208 pounds after playing in 2016 at a significantly higher weight with the New York Jets, according to Terez Paylor of the Kansas City Star.
