– Creed Humphrey became the highest-paid center in NFL history on Thursday, agreeing to a four-year contract extension with the Kansas City Chiefs that is worth $72 million, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The deal includes $50 million in guarantees, sources said.
“He’s a heck of a football player, a real good football player,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said after Thursday night’s 34-21 preseason loss to the Chicago Bears. “He started off that way and he kept it going that way. So we appreciate all he does and we appreciate having him here.”
