He was in the starting lineup from his first NFL game and quickly proved himself one of general manager Brett Veach\u2019s best draft finds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">In four seasons with the Chiefs, Sneed started 54 games. He was also in the initial lineup for 13 postseason games, including victories in Super Bowls LVII and LVIII. Ahead of his second Super Bowl win, Sneed\u2019s goal line forced fumble on Baltimore Ravens wideout Zay Flowers in the AFC Championship will be remembered as one of the top defensive plays in team history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">After the 2023 season, the Chiefs placed the franchise tag on Sneed ahead of free agency. Rather than signing an extension in Kansas City, however, Sneed was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arrowheadpride.com\/2024\/3\/23\/24109562\/chiefs-free-agency-breaking-down-details-ljarius-sneed-trade\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">quickly traded<\/a> to the <a href=\"http:\/\/musiccitymiracles.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tennessee Titans<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Sneed\u2019s time with the Titans was plagued by injuries and a since-dismissed legal situation in Dallas. After signing a four-year contract worth $76 million, he would appear in only 12 games for his second club.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The Titans released Sneed on March 13.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">What this will mean for the Chiefs\u2019 cornerback room remains to be seen. Last year\u2019s starters \u2014 Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson \u2014 are now members of the <a href=\"http:\/\/turfshowtimes.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Los Angeles Rams<\/a>. Kansas City drafted LSU\u2019s Mansoor Delane and Oregon\u2019s Jadon Canady in this year\u2019s draft. Second year pro Nohl Williams and veterans Kristian Fulton and Kaiir Elam are also on the roster.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">With a full 90-man roster, the Chiefs will need to make corresponding personnel move to officially add Sneed to the mix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Late last week, word broke that free agent cornerback L\u2019Jarius Sneed would be visiting the Kansas City Chiefs&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":692680,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[15977,349,99],"class_list":["post-692679","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-kansas-city-chiefs-news","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/692679","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=692679"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/692679\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/692680"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=692679"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=692679"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=692679"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
