Following L’Jarius Sneed’s departure from the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes learns the worst news and responds….
In describing the anticipated terms, Schefter stated that, subject to Sneed’s physical test, the Chiefs would receive a 2025 third-round pick in addition to a 2024 seventh-round pick exchange.
Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report elaborated on the story, revealing that Sneed is set to sign a lucrative four-year contract worth 76 million dollars, of which an astounding 55 million are guaranteed.
Chiefs Kingdom finds this to be a tough pill to take. Just a few hours prior to the surprise trade, quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs stated that he wanted to keep Sneed in the team. During his speech at the 101 Awards, Mahomes acknowledged that he had little power over the situation but praised Sneed for his qualities as a player and a person, highlighting his significant impact on the team’s culture.
Everyone’s money should be received, we hope. We will therefore be happy for him no matter what happens. However, Mahomes stated, “Hopefully, that’s with the Kansas City Chiefs.”
His teammates responded quickly to the news of Sneed’s departure. Justin Reid, the safety for the Chiefs, expressed his unwavering support for Sneed, while Charles Omenihu, the defensive end, put it best with a loud “Sheeshhh.”
The Chiefs are comforted by the roughly $20 million in cap room they have after Sneed’s exit. However, they have a difficult task ahead of them in reassembling their team before the 2024 NFL season begins because they have obvious holes in their roster that need to be filled.
