Chiefs LT Orlando Brown confident deal will get done before July 15 deadline

The Kansas City Chiefs have until July 15 to sign left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. to a long-term deal.

If that deadline passes without a deal, Brown will play for Kansas City on the franchise tag in 2022. Brown, 26, will be due $16.7 million if he plays on the tag this season.

After a long search, Brown just signed agent Michael Portner of Delta Sports Group, who will be negotiating his first NFL contract for a player. They have a little over a month to get a deal done if they don’t want Brown to play on the tag.
