Chiefs, Travis Kelce agree on four-year contract extension

The Chiefs front office has had a productive offseason.

After signing quarterback Patrick Mahomes, defensive lineman Chris Jones, receiver Sammy Watkins and others to new deals, they agreed on a contract extension Thursday with another of their stars.

Tight end Travis Kelce agreed to terms on a four-year deal worth between $14 to $15 million annually, a source familiar with the situation confirmed with The Star.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the deal is worth $57.25 million total and includes $28 million in guaranteed money.

Albert Breer of CBS Boston said Kelce won't receive any additional money this season, but will be given a "sizable guaranteed roster bonus due early next year."

Kelce's base salary for the 2020 season, per Spotrac, is $8 million. The extra four years added to Kelce's deal will keep him in Kansas City through the 2025 season.
