Chiefs Will Place Franchise Tag On Trey Smith
The Kansas City Chiefs will place the franchise tag on Pro Bowl offensive guard Trey Smith, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. The goal remains for the Chiefs to work out a long-term deal with Smith, and negotiations will continue. There's no way Kansas City was going to let the 25-year-old reach the open market this offseason, where he would have been the top guard available. If the two sides are unable to reach a contract extension by the deadline in July, Smith will play the 2025 season on the $23.4 million franchise tag. He was originally a sixth-round selection (226th overall) in the 2021 NFL draft out of the University of Tennessee. Not only has Smith started all 67 of the games he's appeared in since entering the league in 2021, but he's been one of the best all-around guards in his four seasons. His Pro Bowl selection in 2024 was the first of his career.
