The Kansas City Chiefs would like to keep cornerback L’Jarius Sneed, but if they trade him in the coming weeks, they could get a very good return as big markets are interested in his services.\ nLast week it was reported that the Chiefs announced an upcoming free agent L’Jarius to Sneed that he plans to use his franchise tag on a talented defensive back. The team is rumored to be working on signing him to a new long-term contract. But since that will likely be difficult to achieve, they are very open to the idea of trading him in the next few weeks..
Although the 27-year-old has yet to earn Pro Bowl honors in his four-year career, he was expected to have plenty of suitors in free agency as he improved and played on two title teams. The market for his services appears to be just as strong on the trade market.In a trade this week, NFL insiders Nate Taylor and Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported that in recent days, “six teams have expressed interest in acquiring him.

Kansas City Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach and Head Coach Andy Reid are in Indianapolis for the NFL Scouting Combine. In addition to looking at potential top talent, they are preparing for free agency.In order for the Super Bowl to be a legitimate three-peat, the Chiefs must use a wide receiver. Kansas City has already parted ways with Marquez Valdes-Scantling, freeing up about $12 million in cap space. Chicago Bears free agent Darnell Mooney expected to land in Kansas City. Mooney’s 2024 revival option is a bargain, according to a new report.
Several people recommended KC.”Mooney is projected to earn a four-year, $41.98 million contract, according to Spotrac.com. If the 26-year-old is willing to discount Patrick Mahomes’ tickets, Veach might be on to something.The Bears Wire’s Brendan Sugrue wrote, “KC has always been an obvious choice. Part of me wonders how he would view a new offense in Chicago (probably) with a new QB . But I’m sure that ship has sailed.” Connor Christopherson of Arrowhead Report wrote, “It’s ‘every wide receiver goes to KC’ szn, even if Mooney makes a lot of sense.”.
