 the chiefs have been very successful this all season when it comes to retaining their own we all of course heard about the deal with Patrick Mahomes that's worth up to 503 million dollars but chiefs have been doing some more low-key work this all season when it came to keeping their own players uh one of them obviously being Chris Jones uh they franchise tagged him and now they've come to an agreement on a four-year deal with him but there were two other ones on offense that they were able to retain one of them was Sammy Watkins a lot of people thought that Sammy Watkins that he was gonna be out of there I certainly thought he was gonna be out of there because I know he had an enormous cap hit uh and it was all due to him this year and the chiefs they were very restricted salary cap wise but what did they do they could have cut him they could have had a lot of salary cap relief immediate salary cap relief but they said no we want to keep this guy so they reconstructed his deal and then with another one who I thought would be a sleeper free agent pick up for a lot of people especially at the wide receiver position would be Demarcus Robinson Demarcus Robinson was somebody that um speedy receiver uh and yeah he did struggle a little bit here and there with the Kansas City chiefs but they didn't let him go anywhere so chiefs pretty much retained their entire offense and obviously adding uh Clyde uh Clyde's Edwards Clyde's Edwards always forget his name I think it's uh Halleah Edwards I will yeah I think it's Halleah Edwards but anyway the chiefs they've had a pretty successful offseason you throw in what they did in free agency well most of what keeping their own and what what they did in the draft as well so now like we mentioned earlier they are able to retain Chris Jones and he was on about a 16 million dollar cap hit so they re-signed Patrick Mahomes and that's going to really kick in next year but they also re-signed Chris Jones and what that does is that alleviates that cap hit that they had well they had him at 16 mil or about 16 mil because when you're a franchise tag player your entire franchise tag is guaranteed it is guaranteed so that's the cap hit and that's how much you're going to get paid for that year if you play under that franchise tag but they had as long as well as everybody else who has their players on the franchise tag they have until tomorrow 4 p.m eastern time to sign the player to a long-term deal but the chiefs they said uh we ain't gonna wait all the way up into the deadline we're gonna wait a little bit for the deadline we're gonna get this thing done so they have got it done uh as of the recording of this video the details of the contract have not come out yet and it is 133 p.m on July 14th so I assume that we'll get the details of the contract within the next hour but anyway this is good news for the chiefs because they get somebody who I felt like could have been the Super Bowl MVP but I feel like this this guy is such a dominant player he's a he's a very very very very good uh interior defensive lineman I love Chris Jones I love him I wish he could have came to my team but I know he certainly could afford him but anyway uh he is now going to remain with the chiefs and that was a question mark because a lot of people thought oh maybe they might trade him or maybe uh maybe he'll play out on the franchise tag and then go somewhere else next year but now chiefs fans ain't even got to worry about that so congrats so like Chris Jones won't be saying when it comes to the Kansas City Chiefs I'm out
