AFCWEST 1,238 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Chiefs signed OG Kyle Long to a one-year contract. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the deal is worth up to $5 million. It's the Chiefs' second major addition at guard after signing Joe Thuney. Long actually has NFL experience at tackle — where the Chiefs are also replacing both starters — but he hasn't played there since 2015. The Chiefs could still be getting Laurent Duvernay-Tardif back at guard after he opted out of the 2020 season to help fight the coronavirus pandemic — LDT is a doctor — but his NFL future is uncertain. Headed into his age-33 campaign, Long was limited to 30 total appearances by injury between 2016-19. He's an upside addition, but the Chiefs will believe his contributions when they see them.

AFCWEST 1,238 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Free agent OT Riley Reiff will visit the Bengals. The Bengals have former first-rounder Jonah Williams locked in on the left side, the Bengals could be eyeing Reiff as a possible replacement for RT Bobby Hart. He has some experience on the right side from his Detroit days. The Vikings cut Reiff last week in a salary-cap move despite a nice bounce-back year from him in 2020.
