DJ and Sherman take a pay cut
@FieldYates: Source: Chiefs LB Derrick Johnson has taken a pay cut for 2017. He got a $1M signing bonus & $1M base salary, creating ~$4.25M in cap space.
http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=2...130853782707-4 The full story on LB Derrick Johnson & FB Anthony Sherman's reworked contracts: The Chiefs - who were tight to the salary cap - have agreed to a major pay cut with linebacker Derrick Johnson, per league source. Johnson, who tore his Achilles last year, was due a base salary $4.75M for 2017 and up to $1M in per game roster bonuses. Under his new terms, he signed a deal with a $1M signing bonus and a $1M fully guaranteed base salary. It creates about $4.25M in cap space for the Chiefs and keeps a key leader around. The 2018 portion of his contract remains unchanged, other than the $500k proration of the new signing bonus. The Chiefs also negotiated a pay cut with FB Anthony Sherman, whose base salary was dropped from $1.55M to $1.1M (fully guaranteed). He had per-game roster bonuses of $12,500 that were dropped to $6,250, which created a total of $550,000 in cap space for Kansas City. These moves likely helped facilitate the recent signing of DT Bennie Logan. [http://a]Field Yates, ESPN Insider |

I'm not so bothered by the championship drought. I am more upset that we have only played in one AFC championship game in 47 seasons. Teams like Pittsburgh, Denver, New England have literally played in COUNTLESS AFCCG since then.

Winning a championship is always a huge, huge deal. The real difference between the Chiefs and top franchises is how they feel about Conference championship game appearances. For teams like Pit, Dungver, and New England, its just another game.
For us, it'd feel like a banner season |

Yeah, he's got zero ****ing reason to take a paycut. He knows the Chiefs aren't going to cut him and take on all of that dead money.

Tamba sent this tweet out last night:
"NO MORE FAVORS!!!!#PEOPLEAREUNGRATEFUL" - @TambaHali91 Sounds to me like they wanted a pay cut from him but he's done doing that... he also had retweeted a post from a guy who said something about him not needing to take any more pay cuts in his career about a week ago. |
