The player is bound to make an enormous jump as he signed a ten- year contract extension, making him the highest-paid player in the National Football league. According to Forbes, the deal shoots up to $503 million, which is half a billion dollars and is recorded as the highest total value in the history of sport’s contracts.

It was speculated that it would be a struggle for the Chiefs to find salary-cap space with such high-end deals. Despite the offseason due to the global pandemic of Covid-19, Kansas City Chiefs have kept their veteran squad together and continued to do big businesses and making contracts
What can 49ers learn from this?
This year at the Super Bowl LIV, the Kansas City Chiefs have provided some valuable lessons in the team building. First and foremost, it pays to have people in place and making huge investments. Depending on the contract structure, a huge salary commitment on top of another in any given season can be theoretically balanced.
