Getting money is cool, but I want a ring.

Coming back from an injury-shortened season in 2016, Tyrann Mathieu led the NFL in total snaps played in 2017. After being cut by Arizona, he took a one-year deal to rebuild his market. Now he’s making $14M/season for a Super Bowl contender. Still so versatile and productive.

The Chiefs were interested in Tyrann Mathieu last year's free agent period to pair with Eric Berry, but didn't have the cap space to match the $7 million one-year deal he got with Houston. Still makes sense to pair the two together if the Chiefs are convinced Berry is healthy.

The Chiefs, I’m told, we’re aggressive in pursuing Tyrann Mathieu from the start of today’s legal tampering period. Mathieu’s 3-year deal is good for him & the Chiefs, as he’ll be Steve Spagnuolo’s center fielder in the secondary.
