Details of Creed Humphrey's contract extension with Chiefs revealed

On Thursday night, news broke that the Kansas City Chiefs are set to sign star offensive lineman Creed Humphrey to a contract extension that will make him the highest-paid center in the NFL.

Humphrey, who joined the team as a second-round pick in 2021, is among the most critical pieces of Kansas City’s front five and has cemented himself as one of the NFL’s most dominant linemen in his three seasons with the Chiefs.

Shortly after his extension was announced by NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, details of Humphrey’s extension were posted to Twitter by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

According to Schefter, the extension will pay Humphrey $72 million over four years with a $50 million guarantee.

Humphrey is set to be a major part of the Chiefs’ Super Bowl defense campaign in 2024 and should be expected to play with an extra edge after securing this monster extension.
