The Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> are looking into a reunion with CB L\u2019Jarius Sneed after OTAs wrapped. It makes perfect sense if you consider the mentor he was for the 2022 NFL Draft class.<\/p>\n

The Kansas City Chiefs are entertaining a reunion that makes a ton of sense.<\/p>\n

As first reported by ESPN\u2019s Adam Schefter, the Kansas City Chiefs are hosting CB L\u2019Jarius Sneed for a free agent visit on Thursday, June 4. Sneed, of course, began his career in Kansas City<\/a> before he was traded to the Tennessee Titans in 2024. The 29-year-old spent just two disappointing seasons in Tennessee<\/a> before he was released<\/a>. He appeared in just 12 games after dealing with a number of nagging injury issues.<\/p>\n

L\u2019Jarius Sneed\u2019s Chiefs History<\/p>\n

A fourth-round draft pick out of Louisiana Tech in the 2020 NFL Draft, Sneed spent four seasons with Kansas City, establishing himself as a lockdown cornerback. He won back-to-back Super Bowls in Kansas City in 2022 and 2023 before being traded to the Tennessee Titans in 2024.<\/p>\n

Why would adding CB L\u2019Jarius Sneed make perfect sense for the Chiefs?<\/p>\n

The fact that the Chiefs are looking into this shouldn\u2019t be a cause for alarm about Mansoor Delane, Nohl Williams<\/a>, Kristian Fulton<\/a>, or any other cornerbacks on the team. The secondary has undergone significant changes over the past offseason in Kansas City, with mainstays like Trent McDuffie<\/a>, Jaylen Watson<\/a>, and Bryan Cook<\/a> leaving the club. It\u2019s only natural that they\u2019d look into adding a veteran who can act as a stabilizing force for that group. He was exactly that when the team first added McDuffie, Watson, and Cook to the mix in 2022. They got up to speed and contributed in record time, thanks in part to Sneed\u2019s leadership. <\/p>\n

On the flip side, this move makes a lot of sense for Sneed. He is looking to reboot and finish out his NFL career, and Kansas City is the perfect place to do it. He already knows Steve Spagnuolo and Dave Merritt\u2019s system. They\u2019ve navigated some of the injury issues he\u2019s had in the past to keep him on the field. Sneed can act as a veteran mentor for players trying to become hybrid outside and slot cornerbacks. <\/p>\n

This feels like the type of low-cost, prove-it move that would make perfect sense. It would raise the floor for the entire cornerback room, assuming that he can keep himself healthy and on the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Kansas City Chiefs are looking into a reunion with CB L\u2019Jarius Sneed after OTAs wrapped.
