With the legwork of free agency largely completed for the Kansas City Chiefs, the most pressing roster issue remaining is the status of star right guard Trey Smith. The Chiefs opened the offseason by unexpectedly giving Smith the franchise tag (at a one-year salary of $23.4 million). Smith officially signed the offer on March 10.
Smith joined host Kay Adams on Monday’s episode of “The Up and Adams Show” on FanDuel Sports Network. Speaking from a workout in Frisco, Texas, Smith seemed more concerned about hosting an upcoming youth football camp in his hometown of Jackson, Tennessee, as well as attending this weekend’s NCAA basketball tournament match between his alma mater, the Tennessee Volunteers, and the Kentucky Wildcats, than on his contract negotiations.
