NATE ORCHARD

The Washington Redskins continue to stock up on former Chiefs with the news that they’ve signed outside linebacker Nate Orchard to a one-year deal to compete on the outside and provide special teams play. Orchard had a very short stint with K.C. in 2018.

NICK FOLES

Nick Foles only played a single season for the Chiefs in 2016, but he performed admirably in relief of Alex Smith and could have stuck around if not for a giant $16 million option for a second year in K.C. The Chiefs cut him loose and he ended up helping the Philadelphia Eagles win a Super Bowl. Years later, he’s the latest attempt by the Chicago Bears to solve their QB woes.

CHASE DANIEL

We’ve already profiled Daniel’s incredible ability to make so much by generating so little production earlier this spring and now he’s hauled in another $13 million over the next three years to back up Matt Stafford. If Daniel’s history is any indication, he’ll average 20 passing attempts per year while cashing those giant checks.
