Kurt Warner was in Chiefs camp over the past couple of days. But before there is any hysteria from other football sites ready to claim this is an indication of the retired QB’s return to the NFL, let’s put it in context.

Warner was a guest of coach Todd Haley, as the two grew close during their tenure in Arizona. Haley, of course, was Warner’s offensive coordinator during the Cardinals’ run to Super Bowl XLIII two seasons ago. So Warner was doing a solid for his friend, taking some time to speak to the Chiefs about what it takes to be great (via the team’s official site).

“I’m telling you Kurt Warner is as good as they come,” Haley said. “I’m not trying to embarrass him, but this is a special, special human being, and I think he’s been pretty well-represented. He’s the type of person that when you’re around, and I said this to a bunch of guys yesterday, he makes you a little better person and makes you a little more accountable for yourself.”

So watching practice, did Warner have a twinge to get out on the field? The quarterback told his Twitter followers absolutely not.

“Sat and watched a whole practice today and not one time did I want to get out there and play… would say I retired at the right time!” Warner wrote.
