As first reported by Jason La Canfora of the NFL network.The Detroit Lions have been found guilty of tampering with the Kansas City Chefs.Unlike in the past cases with the New England Patroits, and the Denver Broncos.There were no video taping incidents, or spying of any kind.Rather current defensive coordinator Gunthier Cunningham(who is the former Kansas City DC)made comments about being interested in bringing certain players over from Kansas City when FA begins.Is this tampering?? Apparently the NFL felt it was, as they imposed a swap of 5th round picks and the forfeiture of the Detroit Lions 7th round pick to Kansas City.Both clubs have until February 28th to appeal the decision if they so choose too.
