Orlando Brown Jr

“We have a ton of time”: Brett Veach on getting the deal done with Orlando Brown Jr
The Kansas City-based franchise used the $16.6 million franchise tag for Brown. However, Jr. hasn’t signed the tag as of yet. This means that the Chiefs have until July 15 to structure a deal with Brown Jr. Apparently, the Chiefs are in absolutely no hurry to do the needful as they are super busy with draft preparation. Moreover, Brown also doesn’t have an agent yet.
“He’s kind of redoing the agent process, and where we are right now and in addition to the Tyreek Hill trade with our cap and having flexibility now, it allows us to take a step back and get through this draft,” Brett Veach, General Manager recently claimed as reported by Herbie Teope of the Kansas City Star.
“We certainly anticipate that once the draft is over, I’m sure there will be a point that there’s a finality to him going out there and finding an agent,” he further added. He also stated that there is still plenty of time available to figure something out.
“We have a ton of time to talk and you guys know how the Chris Jones deal went, where it was right there toward the end. That’s typically how all these things go where there’s no rush on either side,” he further added.
