ST. JOSEPH, MO. (AP) -- A stadium record crowd saw rookie sensation Dexter McCluster do himself no good at all Saturday in his bid to win the job as punt returner for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Early in a two-hour scrimmage, McCluster had punts bounce off his chest on back-to-back kicks. The quick and versatile second-round pick from Mississippi who's become a fan favorite did manage to catch the ball on the third try. And he still got a big hand from the 10,721 people who jammed Spratt Stadium in St. Joseph on a hot, sunny afternoon.
Spratt is the 31-year-old home of Div. II Missouri Western State University which began hosting the Chiefs' training camp this year.
The previous stadium record was 10,141.
