Sources: The #Chiefs are closing in on signing star TE Travis Kelce to a long-term extension – at least 5 years – that keeps him in a KC uniform catching passes from Patrick Mahomes for the foreseeable future. Keeping their best players...
Very quietly, KC and the agents for Travis Kelce have been working on an extension to pay him according to his production. This should be done in the next day or so. The #Chiefs continue to do work. https://t.co/maqWkpFQD3
I would imagine $14.3 million per year in Kansas City is actually better money than $15 million per year in San Francisco. Insane cost of living in San Fran plus extremely high taxes in California.

Sounds like a solid plan. Player gets his guaranteed money. Chiefs counting on the salary cap to go up more with the new TV contracts kicks in and the contract looks like a bargain.
There's nothing left to say. We are officially fans of the best organization in the NFL.
I have to say I will eat a ton of crow regarding Clark Hunt. I honestly always thought the guy would be content just filling up the stands and going 10-6, but he is shelling out cash like I've never seen from an NFL owner to build a dynasty.

Nothing short of incredible.
His dad is looking down at him with a hug smile on his face. He’s done Lamar proud
Chiefs just got one of their best players in franchise history, who has 200 catches since ‘19, to sign a deal for 28 mil in guarantees. Wild how shitty the market is for TEs
As the Chiefs transition from being the hunter to becoming the hunted, I caught up with TE Travis Kelce - who has plenty at stake in 2020 - and asked him the key to handling that as he heads into one of the most important seasons of his career.https://t.co/jSki24jVNBpic.twitter.com/yR4VYVxArd
