Kansas City’s center checks in at No. 93 on the list voted upon by his peers.
On Thursday, center Creed Humphrey became the first Kansas City Chiefs player to be revealed on this year’s “NFL Top 100 list.” The league revealed Humphrey as the No. 93 player on its official X account.
Over the years, the NFL unveiled the “NFL Top 100” in various ways. In 2025, the league partnered with X and plans to announce two players every weekday, leading up to the top 10, which will be broadcast on NFL Network on Monday, September 1, at 7 p.m....

Instead, the Jets paid Revis $39 million for two years, as the organization decided to move on after an excellent return in 2015 gave way to a disappointing second season. He parted ways with his agents in May 2016 and signed with the Chiefs late in the 2017 season, but after an underwhelming performance in a playoff loss to the Titans, he was cut. He retired in July 2018.
In all, between signing that first extension...

Time flies when the draft class is good.
Certain phrases stick with you. In football, one of my favorite phrases comes from the late, great Terez Paylor.
That phrase signifies that often, when a player is in the last year of their contract, they have a career year before they have an opportunity to get paid. There are countless examples of this happening.
Even recently, you could look at right guard Trey Smith for the Chiefs. Smith was in a contract year last season and played the best football in his career. Because of that season, Smith was franchise-tagged and...

8 NFL Coordinators Who Could Get Head Coaching Jobs After the 2025 Season | Bleacher Report
Matt Nagy, Kansas City Chiefs Offensive Coordinator
The Kansas City Chiefs want to field a more explosive passing attack this year. Of course, head coach Andy Reid will be the mastermind behind play designs. Still, Matt Nagy could get a second look as a head coach from teams that want to implement some of the Chiefs’ high-octane passing flavor.
Nagy has already made the transition from Chiefs offensive coordinator to...

Kansas City’s salary cap is in solid shape, but money can still factor heavily into roster cuts.
Three weeks before the start of training camp on July 21, the Kansas City Chiefs appear to be in great financial shape for the 2025 season. We currently estimate the team to be $11.5 million under the limit — a stark contrast to recent offseasons of operating with minimal breathing room.
That cushion also stands to grow should the Chiefs agree to an extension with franchise-tagged guard Trey Smith ahead of the July 15 deadline. Doing so would likely substantially reduce Smith’s current...

The Chiefs may have already waited too long to extend cornerback Trent McDuffie, despite his signing window only opening in February.
Cornerback contracts have continued to soar in the NFL, with Derek Stingley breaking the bank on a three-year, $90 million extension this offseason that included $89 million in total guarantees.
Six cornerbacks have annual salaries worth over $20 million per year, and Kansas City Chiefs defensive back Trent McDuffie could be the next to hit the mark.
McDuffie, entering his age-25 season, is going into the fourth year of his rookie contract in 2025. The Chiefs have already picked...

Rodgers created explosives very slightly more often but Mahomes was slightly better at creating first downs and quite a bit better at converting on...

The top of the NFL’s guard market is going to shift when Trey Smith signs his new deal
Kansas City Chiefs guard Trey Smith became the NFL’s highest-paid guard in unorthodox fashion this offseason when he received the franchise tag, earning him a one-year, $23.4 million deal.
The tag is expected to be a placeholder for Smith, who has until July 15th to reach a long-term extension with the Chiefs. That timeline is coming sooner and sooner, but many still expect an extension to get done.
Kansas City essentially elected to commit to the Pro Bowl guard this offseason, trading...

Only one team in history has made four straight Super Bowls, and that is the Chiefs’ bitter AFC rivals, the Buffalo Bills. While the Bills didn’t end up winning any of those games, they still are the benchmark for history. With the Chiefs looking to bounce back in 2025, it has to be known within the organization that this goal is reachable.
However, former general manager of the New York Jets turned analyst Mike Tannenbaum revealed the...
