With 19 players who should strike a free agency without restriction, the Kansas City chiefs could not keep everyone on their list. But on Saturday, they announced an agreement to keep one of their main targets.
According to several reports, the chiefs have agreed with an agreement with the broad marquise receiver “Hollywood” Brown on a one -year contract of $ 11 million.
Brown missed the majority of last season with a bizarre injury, but should now keep its place in Kansas City.
This is a slight increase compared to the one year $ 7 million contract he signed last season at the age of 26.
