IMO the Chiefs win this trade. Easily.
Ingram asked for trade 2 weeks ago. Steelers fielded offers but decided to hold onto him. Ingram proceeds to quit on the team claiming a bogus "groin injury" that had him sit out last week against Cleveland. Now the Steelers accomodate him by sending him to KC.
Getting something instead of nothing is good, but a clear steal for KC. Now the Steelers' OLB depth is in shambles. Tomlin always says "we want volunteers, not hostages". At least they don't have to deal with the drama any longer. It was strange that the rotation they had going with Ingram & Highsmith had stopped in recent weeks, in favor of Highsmith... That rotation was working very well. And Ingram was even seeing the field in 3-OLB sets (OLB inside at ILB). That diminished role pissed him off.
