Shortly after the deal was announced, Clark and the Chiefs agreed to a new five-year, $105.5 million deal. The deal includes over $63 million in guaranteed money.
Via NBC Sports:
According to multiple reports, Clark has agreed to a five-year, $105.5 million deal with his new team. The deal has $63.5 million in guaranteed money.
Clark was set to make $17.128 million if he played out the season under the terms of the franchise tag that the Seahawks slapped on him in March.
This is a pretty good deal for both sides. The Chiefs replace Dee Ford, who they traded away earlier in the off-season, and the Seahawks get a haul of draft picks.
In addition to the picks, Seattle freed up some cap space. They need all the money they can get after paying Russell Wilson.
