Chiefs' Anthony Firkser: Staying in Kansas City
Firkser agreed to a reserve/future contract with the Chiefs on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
The veteran tight end appeared in seven games in 2024 (three with the Jets, four with the Chiefs) but didn't draw a single target while playing just 32 snaps on offense. After ending the season on Kansas City's practice squad, Firkser will remain with the organization as a member of the Chiefs' 90-man offseason roster when the new league year begins March 12.

Chiefs' Travis Kelce: Pondering playing future for '25
Kelce said Wednesday in the latest episode of the "New Heights" podcast that he hasn't determined whether he'll continue his playing career in 2025. "I'm gonna take some time to figure it out," Kelce said of his playing future. "And I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back that it's gonna be a wholehearted decision and I'm not half-assing it, and I'm fully here for them."
Following the Chiefs' 40-22 loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX this past Sunday, Kelce didn't address his future plans in the postgame interview room, but he took to his podcast days later to make his first formal comments on the matter. Though the 35-year-old remained one of the NFL's most productive tight ends in 2024 with his seventh straight season of at least 90 receptions, he averaged a career-low 8.5 yards per catch on his 97 grabs over 16 regular-season games. Kelce turned in one of his best performances of the campaign in the wild-card win over Houston (7-117-1 line on eight targets), but he was limited to just six receptions for 58 yards and no touchdowns on 10 targets over the Chiefs' final two postseason games. While he hasn't put a timeline on deciding whether he'll keep playing in 2025, Kelce will presumably inform the Chiefs of his plans before the start of the new league year in March so that the organization can prepare accordingly if he elects to retire. Kelce carries a $19.8 million cap hit for 2025 after agreeing to a two-year, $34.25 million restructured contract extension with Kansas City last April.

Chiefs' Baylor Cupp: Remaining in Kansas City
Cupp (undisclosed) signed a reserve/future contract with Kansas City on Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports reports.
Cupp was signed to the team's practice squad in late August after failing to make the 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp. He made his NFL regular-season in Week 14 against the Chargers, during which he logged 10 snaps (six on offense, four on special teams). He ended the 2024 campaign on the practice-squad injured list due to an unspecified injury, but by signing a futures deal, the 24-year-old tight end will be on the 90-man roster once the new league year starts March 12. Assuming he's fully healthy, Cupp will participate in the offseason program and training camp.

Chiefs' Jason Brownlee: Signs future deal with Kansas City
Kansas City signed Brownlee to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports reports.
Brownlee was signed to the team's practice squad Jan. 15 to give Kansas City depth at wide receiver during the postseason. He wasn't elevated to the active roster, but by signing a futures deal, Brownlee will be on the 90-man roster when the new league year begins March 12. He'll take part in OTAs, minicamp and training camp but is a long shot to earn a spot on the 53-man roster for the 2025 season.

Chiefs' Chris Oladokun: Inks future deal with Kansas City
Kansas City signed Oladokun to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z sports reports.
After failing to make the team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp, Oladokun was invited back by Kansas City in mid-October to join the practice squad. He was elevated for Week 18 against the Broncos to serve as the backup quarterback behind Carson Wentz while Patrick Mahomes rested. Oladokun will participate in OTAs, minicamp and training camp but seems highly unlikely to win the No. 2 quarterback job behind Mahomes.

Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Staying in Kansas City
Ross signed a reserve/future contract with Kansas City on Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports reports.
Ross was unable to make the team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he stuck around on the practice squad. He did not record a catch in Week 9 and 10 when he was elevated to the active roster, and he was a healthy scratch for the AFC Championship Game against the Bills. Ross will be on Kansas City's 90-man roster when the new league year begins March 12, which will give him an opportunity to participate in OTAs, minicamp and training camp.

Chiefs' Tyquan Thornton: Inks future deal with Kansas City
Thonton signed a reserve/future contract with Kansas City on Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports reports.
Thornton was waived by the Patriots in mid-November after a disappointing six-game stretch to start the 2024 season, during which he logged just four catches on eight targets for 47 yards. The 2022 second-round pick landed on Kansas City's practice squad Nov. 18, and while he wasn't ever elevated to the active roster, Thornton will have an opportunity to work out with Kansas City during OTAs, minicamp and training camp.
