The Kansas City Chiefs are going into an interesting off-season. While they obviously made it to a third straight Super Bowl, it was clear that they were the inferior team in the big game. It was also evident all season long that Kansas City wasn’t dominating their opponents like normal.
In order to get back to the Super Bowl and continue their dynasty, the Chiefs have decided to retain a two -time Super Bowl champion.
Breaking: Chiefs Agree To Massive 3-Year Deal With 2x Super Bowl Champ (Report)
Before the 2025 NFL season, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Nick Bolton has re-signed:
The linebacker agreed to a three-year, $30 million deal with the team, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Bolton selected in the second round of the 2021 NFL draft by the Kansas City Chiefs. The Missouri product quickly blossomed into a productive linebacker, racking up 112 tackles as a rookie and becoming a starter for the Chiefs.
Bolton led Kansas City in tackles during three of his four seasons with the team. The only time he failed to do so was during the 2023 season, when he played in just eight games because of a wrist injury.
Here is a look at Bolton’s career stats:
