Flyers lock in Drysdale with four-year, $26M extension

The Philadelphia Flyers announced a four-year, $26 million contract extension for defenseman Jamie Drysdale, carrying a $6.5 million AAV and limited no-trade protections (Year 3: six-team NTC; Year 4: four-team NTC). Drysdale, who posted career-best metrics and a career-high eight goals in 2025-26 while averaging a career-high 21:33 of ice time, is expected to contribute on both sides of the puck as Philadelphia pushes for continued growth. With two RFAs remaining (Nikita Grebenkin and Hunter McDonald) and about $15 million in cap space, the roster could be largely set this summer, with focus on developing young players and potential edge additions.

"Chiefs' Chris Jones Signs Record-Breaking Contract, Impact on Salary Cap Revealed"

The Kansas City Chiefs have signed a five-year contract with All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones, totaling $158.8 million with an average annual value of $31.8 million. The deal includes $60 million fully guaranteed at signing, with a 2024 cap hit of just $7.4 million. While the contract provides security for Jones for three years, the Chiefs have structured it to have small cap commitments after that, allowing them to potentially walk away if necessary. With 60 players under contract, the team currently has an estimated $734,000 in cap space, which could increase if cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is traded.
