Wide receiver Chris Chambers(notes) said earlier this week that he suspected his off-field problems had more to do with his release from the San Diego Chargers than the team's desire to give Malcolm Floyd and Legedu Naanee(notes) more touches.
Chambers' wife, Christina, told San Diego police in April that she was being harassed by Stacey Saunders, a 27-year-old with whom Chris Chambers admitted to having an affair, the San Deigo Union Tribune reports.
Chambers, 31, said Monday, �I guess it created a distraction upstairs. � They know a little too much of my life, and they used it against me.�
In early June, Chris Chambers requested a restraining order against Saunders.
�Beginning in April, Ms. Saunders became aware that our affair, now broken off, was known to my wife,� Chambers wrote. �Since then she (Saunders) has launched an incessant attack verbally on me, and now my wife, her mother and sister. All calls, text messages and e-mails are abusive, vulgar and irrational. They have begun to mention intimate details of my life such as my son, home address, and family member locations.�
According to the newspaper, a hearing was set for late June, but neither Chris Chambers nor Saunders showed up for the court date. A week later Chambers filed for divorce from his wife. They are working out terms and custody of their 2-year-old son.
�Unfortunately, this is a serious legal matter and I cannot comment at this time,� Christina Chambers wrote Tuesday in an e-mail to the Union-Tribune.
The Kansas City Chiefs claimed Chambers on Tuesday.
