The Nick Foles quarterback sweepstakes are officially over, and it looks like the Dallas Cowboys aren't going to go home happy.

According to NFL.com, Foles has agreed to terms with the Kansas City Chiefs in a move that will reunite the quarterback with the coach who originally drafted him.

Foles' late-night decision to sign with the Chiefs ended a week-long sweepstakes that didn't really get interesting until Tuesday when Cowboys backup quarterback Kellen Moore broke his right ankle during practice.

After the injury, Foles became an immediate candidate to back up Tony Romo in Dallas. According to NFL.com, the Cowboys were one of three teams to offer a contract to Foles on Wednesday night. Besides Dallas and Kansas City, Foles also received an offer from the Vikings.
