Trey Smith on long-term deal: I just leave it to the hands of my agents

Details
10 July 2025

The Chiefs elected to franchise tag guard Trey Smith this offseason instead of letting him hit free agency.

Now, Smith and Kansas City are facing a July 15 deadline to strike a long-term deal.

In a recent interview with Up & Adams, Smith was asked what he feels the latest is on the contract front.

“I just leave it to the hands of my agents,” Smith said. “And obviously, the front office staff of the Chiefs are elite. At the end of the day, I let them take care of it. I just have to focus on being the best version of myself, being the best football player, and being prepared for training camp because St. Joe’s is around the corner. That’s going to be — I don’t even want to talk about that right now.”

Smith is currently slated to earn $23.4 million on the franchise tender in 2025.

A sixth-round pick in 2021, Smith has started 67 of 68 possible games in his career, winning Super Bowl LVII and LVIII with the Chiefs. He was a Pro Bowler for the first time in 2024.

Lane Johnson: I still feel young in heart, but you can't ignore Father Time

10 July 2025

With Brandon Graham's retirement after Philadelphia won Super Bowl LIX, Lane Johnson is now the Eagles' elder statesman.

Entering his 13th season, the two-time, first-team All-Pro offensive tackle is still under contract through 2027. If he plays that long, it would put him in a tie with Graham as the longest-tenured player in franchise history.

"Yeah, if there's anybody to end a tie with, it would be BG. It's crazy that we had a number of guys who all stayed together for all these years," Johnson said in an interview with NFL Network’s Good Morning Football this week. "Yeah, it doesn't feel like [season] No. 13, but here it is.

“I still feel young in heart, but you can’t ignore Father Time. I'm still having fun and enjoying what I do. I love being around the guys, competing and it's just something that I really love doing every minute of it.”

The No. 4 overall pick of the 2013 draft, Johnson has started 158 games and won a pair of Super Bowls with the Eagles over his long career.
