After a pair of Pro Bowl selections and two Super Bowl victories, Creed Humphrey has another accolade to add to his resume.
Humphrey and the Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to terms on a four-year, $72 million deal that will make him the highest-paid center in the NFL, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday night, per sources.
Over the course of the new deal, Humphrey will average $18 million per season, making him the highest-paid center in history based on annual average, surpassing the previous mark of Jason Kelce at $14.25 million in a massive way.
Humphrey, who was set to play in the final year of his rookie contract, has started every game possible since he was taken in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft by the Chiefs.
He’s been the starting center for Kansas City in 51 consecutive games to begin his career and all 10 playoffs games during his tenure.
Humphrey has been a crucial part in shoring up the Chiefs’ line in front of Patrick Mahomes and has been a Pro Bowl pick in each of the last two seasons, though he’s never taken part in the Pro Bowl Games because he’s been busy helping the squad to back-to-back Super Bowl wins.
A stout run blocker and pass protector, the 25-year-old’s importance for the Chiefs can’t be overstated, and he’s now got the contract to prove that.
