Deon Bush’s new Chiefs contract reveals that Brett Veach has learned a lesson

On March 31, the Kansas City Chiefs re-signed safety Deon Bush for the coming season. As usually occurs with signings made by Kansas City general manager Brett Veach, it was a little while before the contract’s specific details were available.

According to the salary-cap site Spotrac, Bush will earn $1.3 million in 2023.

In 2022, the former Chicago Bears safety signed a veteran salary benefit contract with the Chiefs. This allowed the team to pay him 2022’s NFL minimum salary for a player with six credited seasons ($1,035,000), but carry the minimum salary of a player with two credited seasons ($895,000) against the salary cap.
