KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs re-signed two exclusive rights free agents on Monday.
Wide receivers Frankie Hammond Jr. and Junior Hemingway signed their respective tenders, according to Monday’s NFL Transactions report.
The 25-year-old Hammond joined the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent out of Florida in 2013, and spent that season on the Chiefs practice squad.
Hammond emerged during the 2014 training camp to make the 53-man roster, and went on to appear in 16 games with three starts, totaling four catches for 45 yards.
He also contributed on special teams as a returner in 2014, totaling 15 punt returns for 200 yards and two kickoff returns for 74 yards.
The Chiefs selected Hemingway, who played collegiately at Michigan, in the seventh round of the 2012 NFL Draft.
Hemingway, 26, has appeared in 31 games with three starts the past three seasons, recording 25 catches for 233 yards and two touchdowns.
He chipped in with 14 special teams tackles the past two seasons.
