I hope that doesn't drive the price up.

The Chiefs, like most teams, convert some of a player's salary to a bonus, which allows them to spread that cost out across the remaining years.
Teams can also add additional year(s) that really just allow the bonus to spread across more.


And if you look at their cap situation, they still have $7.6 mill in cap.
Next year, they go up to estimated $76 mill in cap with impending FAs.
Chris Jones is the big one that is set to hit FA next year, which is why they have so much cap currently for 2024 and beyond.
