[oldtimer 8,684]

The Kansas City Chiefs have officially signed their final restricted free agent.

According to reporting from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Chiefs fourth-year CB Charvarius Ward has officially signed his restricted free agent contract tender. Ward was tendered at the second-round level this offseason, which means that he’ll earn $3.384 million in 2021 with Kansas City.

The Chiefs originally added Ward in 2018 in a trade sending Parker Ehinger to the Dallas Cowboys. It was criticized at the time, but Ward has developed into a solid piece for Kansas City. He was a starter opposite Bashaud Breeland in each of the past two seasons and he’s primed for a breakout during a contract year.

The Chiefs may need Ward to start or at least fill the DB room, but I hope Baker is 100% and Madison can get him to reach his potential.  Maybe Ward should have a clause in his contract that pays a bonus if he can turn his head.

Ward isn't always the best, but the Chiefs have got a lot out of him for being a un-drafted guy.

Not to mention we basically stole him from the cowgirls

I don't think there should be a question about his contributions, he did well for an undrafted guy and has been doing it for a few years now. The only question at this point is whether or not keeping him beyond his rookie deal. Honestly I wouldn't mind keeping him around for a few years with a contract averaging as much as his RFA tender.
