Chiefs can re-sign 4 pending free agents without breaking the bank

These four players won’t be terribly expensive for the Kansas City Chiefs to re-sign.

OG Andrew Wylie

In 2018, Wylie won the Mack Lee Hill Award as the Chiefs top first-year player. He secured a starting spot in place of an injured Cameron Erving on the interior offensive line in Week 7. He never gave that spot up again until the 2019 season.

After starting the first five games of the 2019 season at left guard, ticky tacky injuries derailed his season. Wylie would start a total of 11 games but miss the final two games of the regular season and all of the postseason, including Super Bowl LIV, with Stefen Wisniewski taking over at left guard.

Wylie is also an ERFA and despite having some success in his career, he can’t turn down a contract tender. His tender amount will likely be the lowest amount which is $570K. It’d make a lot of sense to bring Wylie back because he’s proven to be an adequate starter and good depth off the bench. If the Chiefs are forced to make Laurent Duvernay-Tardif a cap casualty, he could be in line to take over at the right guard spot.
