Former Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Charvarius Ward intends to sign a three-year deal worth up to $42 million, including $26.7 million guaranteed, with the San Francisco 49ers, his agency, Universal Sports & Entertainment Management, told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.
Ward, who turns 26 on May 16, has been a regular in the Chiefs' starting lineup since late in the 2018 season, when he joined the team as a rookie after a trade with the Dallas Cowboys.
Ward was a significant part of the Chiefs' defensive turnaround this past season.
