The Kansas City Chiefs are working on keeping defensive end Frank Clark.
As first reported by Albert Breer of The MMQB, Kansas City is working on a restructured deal for Clark. As of now, Clark is set to have a $26.3 million cap hit in 2022. NFL Network’s James Palmer has since confirmed this report.
Brett Veach did suggest that this was a possibility back at the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine. Still, many believed the Chiefs would release or trade Clark, which could save the team $13.4 million if traded or released before June 1 or $19.85 million if traded or designated to be released post-June 1. Clark still has two years left on his deal so it looks like instead of a release or trade, the Chiefs have decided to try to keep Clark back in the fold.
