I hit the wrong button so I gave you positive rep to counter it

Yeah but the elite TEs get plenty of endorsements. Gronk never touched his NFL salary while he was playing. He lived off of his endorsement money. He talked about it in his book "“It’s Good to be Gronk."

Just goes to show how important it is to manage money properly.

While I would have liked Kelce to continue to play for cheap I totally get it. Kelce earned his salary from all the years of being underpaid. Glad he will retire a Chief.

Love that man!

This dude is the best. Well deserved.

We finally signed this POS?

ThyKingdomCome15 04-29-2024 01:43 PM

Well deserved, love Kelce. :)

If this lowers his cap hit in 2024, then what moves are out there we are still trying to make?

JPH83 04-29-2024 01:45 PM

As much as I loved his attitude to money saving us millions, man he deserved this

RunKC 04-29-2024 01:48 PM

This is a favor and works for both parties. He was never gonna have a $19 million cap hit in 2025.

He gets the APY and a fat check today while we get him for a reasonable price a couple more years to control the cap.

Win/win

That is awesome and well deserved. I have zero problems paying him what ever he wants.

smithandrew051 04-29-2024 01:50 PM

Plays for my favorite team tbh

CupidStunt 04-29-2024 01:55 PM

This seems a bigger deal than I first thought. I was like duh. But maybe he actually could get a brinks truck from other avenues and instead wants to commit to this dynasty.

Dude is gonna retire with more rings than anyone not named Brady isn't he? Well... and Mahomes of course.
