Patrick Mahomes and Chiefs Make NFL History with Record-Breaking Contract Restructure

Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs have reportedly agreed to a restructured contract that will bring the average annual value closer to the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. The new deal will see Mahomes receive $210.6 million over the next four seasons, making it the most lucrative four-year span for a player in NFL history. The quarterback's original 10-year contract was worth $477 million, but several other quarterbacks have since signed deals with higher average annual values. Mahomes has been guaranteed an NFL record $273 million since his contract was agreed to in 2020.
