Earlier in March, the Kansas City Chiefs placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on L’Jarius Sneed. That allows the Chiefs to retain his services for a 1-year $19.8 million guaranteed contract. It also allows them to trade the talented cornerback if they get the right offer. Of course, whatever team trades for him is going to have to give up draft compensation and give Sneed a huge contract.
There were some rumblings this week that the Tennessee Titans were in on Sneed, but Paul Kuharsky shut that down last night.
This morning, Destin Adams of AtoZ Sports reported that the Chiefs and the Indianapolis Colts were finalizing a deal for Sneed.
