Chiefs add QB Palko and DT Gales, six others to practice squad

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Quarterback Tyler Palko and defensive tackle Dion Gales were among eight players named on Sunday to the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad.

Later Sunday, the Chiefs said they were awarded defensive tackle Anthony Toribio via a waiver claim from Green Bay. Toribio was waived by the Packers on Saturday.

The Chiefs also released wide receiver Quinten Lawrence.

Also released were wide receiver Verran Tucker, defensive tackle Garrett Brown, tackle Bobby Greenwood, guard Darryl Harris, safety Ricky Price and linebacker Pierre Walters.

Toribio, 6-1, 315, played in one game with Green Bay in 2009 after entering the NFL as a rookie free agent with Miami in 2008.
