Kansas City will not recoup the two draft picks forfeited for violating the league's Anti-Tampering Policy in their March, 2015 recruitment of free agent Jeremy Maclin.
The Chiefs' appeal of anti-tampering sanctions was denied by NFL, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported, via a league source.
The organization was informed Monday that they will indeed surrender their third-round pick in 2016 and sixth-round pick in 2017, as originally outlined by NFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations Troy Vincent last month.
Although the appeal was denied, Commissioner Roger Goodell did reduce the team's fine from $250,000 to $200,000 and Andy Reid's fine from $75,000 to $60,000.
