On Sunday afternoon, defensive end George Karlaftis agreed to terms on a long-term contract extension. This offseason, the Chiefs have been forthcoming about their order of plans:
- Get a long-term deal done with right guard Trey Smith (check).
- Sign Karlaftis to a long-term extension (check).
- Sign cornerback Trent McDuffie to a long-term extension (TBD).
Around the time the Chiefs agreed to terms with Smith, the New York Jets made Sauce Gardner the league’s highest-paid cornerback ($120 million, including $60 million in guarantees). In March, Houston Texans cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. signed a three-year, $90 million extension (including $89 million guaranteed). Theoretically,
those contracts should provide the Chiefs and McDuffie’s team some parameters to use.
So... therein lies the question: will the Chiefs lock up McDuffie before the end of training camp? Let us know what you think in our comment section.
