On Monday — as they telegraphed by releasing Justin Houston on Sunday — the Kansas City Chiefs made a big move in free agency, reportedly agreeing to a deal with former Houston Texans safety Tyrann Mathieu. Mathieu agreed to a three-year deal worth $42 million.
On the field, there is much to like about this move. Mathieu is a solid, versatile playmaker who is tailor-made for the defense we believe new defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo will field for the Chiefs in 2019.
Mathieu solves a lot of problems.
