After lacking the playoffs for the primary time since 2014 final season, the Kansas City Chiefs are reuniting with a star defender who helped them win two of their 4 Tremendous Bowls.
The Chiefs signed cornerback L’Jarius Sneed to a one-year deal price as much as $5M on Monday. He performed for Kansas Metropolis from 2020-23 and spent the final two seasons with the Tennessee Titans.
The Chiefs took LSU Tigers CB Mansoor Delane with decide No. 6 within the 2026 NFL Draft to switch CB Trent McDuffie (now with the Los Angeles Rams), however Sneed gives a wanted veteran presence within the secondary. Will he supply greater than that?
L’Jarius Sneed’s tenure with the Titans did not go properly
Sneed signed a four-year, $76.4M take care of the Titans after the Chiefs traded him to the AFC membership earlier than the 2024 season. He struggled to justify that deal in two seasons with Tennessee.
Quad and knee points restricted Sneed to 12 video games in two seasons with the Titans, and when he did play, the DB struggled. Per Sports Info Solutions, he had 4 go breakups after logging 36 in 4 seasons with the Chiefs. His 2025 season was notably underwhelming as he allowed a career-worst 10.6 yards per goal and had no interceptions.
The Titans, who have not made the playoffs since 2021, are among the many NFL‘s extra dysfunctional groups. They fired second-year head coach Brian Callahan after Week 6 final season. Certainly, that prevented Sneed from enjoying at his greatest.
He ought to enhance in Kansas Metropolis beneath future Corridor of Fame head coach Andy Reid and well-respected defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. Even then, that will not be sufficient to assist Sneed change into a surefire CB2, not to mention a CB1.
The Chiefs want Delane to ascertain himself as a lockdown nook to switch McDuffie. Sneed, 29, could possibly be a stable position participant however could now not be able to doing that job at this level in his profession.
