The chiefs also drafted two interior prospects - one of whom played very well at center last year. I believe these pieces of evidence show the Chiefs are preparing themselves to move on. Could Humphrey remain a Chief? Of course - assuming the contract fits and they don’t have a viable, cheaper replacement.
Does drafting two interior lineman have an impact on future decisions? Absolutely. Veach isnt throwing darts with a blindfold on here.

They're giving themselves options, but Veach has shown he's not afraid to pay for top quality starting interior linemen. If Nourzad/Hanson are good starting quality linemen, then sure. Otherwise, don't be surprised if Humphrey gets a new deal.
