But damn, this tweet is starting to hit me now. I don't get to watch Tyreek destroy opposing defenses in a Chiefs uniform anymore.

We've never had a player like him before. A lot of good memories.

We get to watch Kelce finish his HOF career with his best friend though.

Also lol that he mentioned Dieter. Man, I don't understand how a guy who sucks so much on the football field can be so popular and well-liked

That’s Tyreek’s best friend on the team.

I'm 100% fine with the decision that Veach made, and I believe that the Chiefs are better positioned to succeed in the next 3-5 years because of it. But yeah, there's no question that this one's just a bummer. Sucks to lose the guys you love to watch.

(But Veach better not let Kelce go anywhere. He needs to retire a Chief.)

Wednesday’s stunning news in the NFL arose from the Chiefs trading receiver Tyreek Hill to the Dolphins. Miami promptly gave Hill the kind of contract the Chiefs wouldn’t.

Initial reports regarding the new agreement included some discrepancies as to length and amount. We knew the truth eventually would become available. It has. Here are the actual details regarding the deal.

1. Signing bonus: $25.5 million.

2. 2022 base salary: $1.035 million, fully guaranteed.

3. 2023 offseason roster bonus: $10 million, fully guaranteed.

4. 2023 base salary: $16 million, fully guaranteed.

5. 2024 base salary: $19.665 million, fully guaranteed by March 2023.

6. 2025 offseason roster bonus: $1 million.

7. 2025 base salary: $21.835 million.

8. 2026 offseason roster bonus: $1 million.

9. 2026 base salary: $43.9 million.

10. 2022-26 workout bonuses: $100,000 per year.

11. 2022-26 Pro Bowl incentive: $250,000 per year.

The deal pays out $52.535 million fully guaranteed at signing, with another $19.665 million fully guaranteed by March 2023.

Described by some as a four-year, $120 million extension, the inflated compensation package of $45 million for the final year of the deal helps get the contract to a new-money average of $30 million. Remove that season (it undoubtedly will be removed), and it’s a three-year, $75 million extension. That equates to a new-money average of $25 million.

In all, it’s a five-year, $140.435 million deal but, as a practical matter, a four-year, $95.435 million contract. The first three years are essentially guaranteed; the only way to avoid paying him $72.2 million through 2024 would be to cut him after one season, at a total expenditure of $52.535 million.

It’s a deal the Dolphins were willing to do, along with giving up five draft picks to do it. The Chiefs were more willing to take the picks and keep the cash and cap space, even if it meant giving up one of the most dangerous non-quarterbacks in the entire league.

That was Pats as well until Kelce came along

ya, I honestly hope he breaks records and has a very long career similar to Jerry Rice's and I hope he gets 2,000 yards receiving next season. He's the best and this sucks but I guess you just can't pay everyone.

Save it.

It's all about the money. You're exactly right. The Chiefs took a chance on you, they made your dreams come true, they stood by you every step of the way. Even when everybody else was trying to tear you down.

You were in the perfect system, with the perfect coach, and the perfect quarterback. And you threw it all away for money and ego.

I appreciate all the memories. I really do. He was my second favorite player on this team besides Mahomes. But as of this moment, Tyreek Hill is dead to me as a player. He's no longer a Kansas City Chief.

And **** everyone who in the NFL who isn't a Kansas City Chief.

Long way of saying; **** you Tyreek.

At least the raiders still suck.

In order for Dieter to be Tyreek's best friend on the team, doesn't he need to be... well... on the team?

The only way we wouldn’t regret extending Hill is if he continues to stay healthy, productive, and if the dollars don’t stop us from signing other guys we need.

That deal would be hard to live up to.

The trade has several ways that it can end well for us.

So **** John Dorsey, right?

John Dorsey brought us Mahomes and therefore a Super Bowl championship before he was unjustly fired in a power struggle.

I make an exception for him.
