00:00And one more time, a moment for the headline, if we can.
00:07Take me higher.
00:09You want to sing a little Creed?
00:11As we say that Creed Humphrey has signed a four-year, $78 million contract, or $72 million
00:18contract extension with the Chiefs, making him the highest paid center in the history
00:22of the NFL.
00:23Yeah, he should be too, because you're looking to reward those young players.
00:26And when you're looking to say, you know, sometimes it's a wide receiver and a quarterback
00:29that you want to keep together, the offensive coordinator and the quarterback, what better
00:32than just to say, you know what?
00:34My quarterback and my center, who are at the top of their game, and maybe the best in the
00:38NFL, they're going to be together for years and years and years, right through their prime.
00:42It's a good move for Kansas City.
00:44You take care of your best players right before the season, so there's no worries about, boy,
00:48I wonder what my paycheck's going to be next year.
00:50If I get injured in the NFL, which is a topic which you can get injured at any time here,
00:54I'd love to see that.
00:55Reward your best players, get those vibes high before the season starts, and away Kansas
00:59City as the favorite to win the Super Bowl right now, that's good news for them.
01:04And again, Creed Humphrey, three years in the NFL, drafted out of Oklahoma in 2021,
01:09has been a Pro Bowler each of the past two years, and finished third in the voting for
01:13Offensive Rookie of the Year back during his first season in the NFL in 2021.
