Gehrig Dieter is a former wide receiver and Super Bowl winner with the Kansas City Chiefs. He’s been out of football for a few years but remains active on social media, sharing thoughts on topics around the league, including front office decisions from AFC West rivals.
According to multiple reports, the Las Vegas Raiders agreed to terms on a 4-year, $15.8M extension with an $11M guaranteed deal with All-Pro punter AJ Cole. The deal made him the highest-paid punter in the NFL, and Dieter didn’t miss the breaking news as he reposted FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz with comments.

“When you expect to punt a lot, you pay for a good punter,” posted Dieter on his X account with laughing emojis.
Dieter played for the Chiefs from 2017 to 2021, spending most of his time on the practice squad or special teams. He had two career receptions for 32 yards before announcing his retirement in June 2022.
The Chiefs and Raiders rivalry continues to be one of the best in the league’s history as former players like Dieter playfully keep the same energy off the field.
