It feels like Veach said the word "tag" and OBJ said "**** that." Paraphrasing a little for brevity's sake, because I can be a wordy bitch.

Anyway, anything is possible, and I'm about the last person to ever predict anything having to do with the draft correctly, but it feels like OBJ will not play for the Chiefs in 2023.

Which I think is fine. We were going to have to overpay him anyway, and in the process maybe lose CJ, which is unacceptable.
He wasn't technically released. They declined to tag him so he becomes a FA at the beginning of the new season.

And yes, it happened really fast. Which means one possibility is that they know there's no way they're agreeing on numbers. It's also possible that it went that fast because they know exactly how they want to handle it and they're still looking to bring him back.
