Sources: KC’s Humphrey now highest-paid center
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Creed Humphrey became the highest-paid center in NFL history by agreeing to a four-year contract extension with the Kansas City Chiefs worth $72 million, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported.
The contract includes $50 million in guarantees.
Humphrey, 25, joined the Chiefs in 2021 as a second-round draft pick from Oklahoma and immediately became a starter. He has been a solid pass protector. In 2023, he ranked second among the NFL’s interior offensive linemen in pass block win rate at 98.8%. Ahead of him was his Chiefs teammate, guard Joe Thuney.
The Chiefs’ other starting guard, Trey Smith, is entering the final season of his contract. Smith, who came to the Chiefs in the same draft as Humphrey, was third in the NFL in pass block win rate at 96.6%
