Orlando Brown Jr. to report to Chiefs training camp, sign franchise tag

The Kansas City Chiefs are getting an important player back as they kick off the second week of training camp practices.

As first reported by former NFL QB Robert Griffin III, who is now an analyst for ESPN, franchise-tagged LT Orlando Brown Jr. will report to Chiefs training camp on Monday. Griffin says that Brown Jr. says he’s “in the best shape of his life” and knows the importance of early padded practice sessions under HC Andy Reid.

Brown Jr. had stayed away from the team for the entire offseason program, seeking a long-term contract extension. After failing to agree on a long-term deal ahead of the deadline for franchise tag players, Brown Jr.’s holdout persisted into the first week of training camp practices.
