They would need to file the paperwork with the league office, though. And that's where guys like Schefter and others will pick up the story.
I think I would be more likely to believe Weatherman's source if he just said the figures and that the Chiefs will wait a few days. This part about not wanting to outshine the Royals in the ASG is pure bullshit. If they don't want to overshadow the Royals in the ASG, they should announce the new contract by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.
