BREAKING: New England Patriots Interested In Massive Trade For Kansas City Chiefs 2X Super Bowl Champion
New England Patriots Kansas City Chiefs
The New England Patriots have reportedly expressed interest in trading for a star Kansas City Chiefs cornerback this offseason. The Patriots are looking to improve the position group after cutting J.C Jackson last week following a dramatic 2023 season.
The Kansas City Chiefs have big decisions upcoming
The offseason for the Chiefs has been marked by internal drama, primarily revolving around the intricate balancing act between their star defensive players and the constraints of their salary cap. Notably, the Chiefs have not yet finalized an extension for defensive tackle Chris Jones. Additionally, recent developments saw the Chiefs using the franchise tag on L’Jarius Sneed, although they have allowed him to explore potential trade options.
L’Jarious Sneed has a lot of interest from the league
The trade market for Sneed is robust a week before free agency starts. According to Tyler Dragon with USA Today, the Patriots are one of seven teams that have shown interest in trading for Sneed:
“As expected, the Kansas City Chiefs officially placed the franchise tag on cornerback L’Jarius Sneed. Sneed still has permission to seek a trade despite the designation. A person with direct knowledge of the situation told USA TODAY Sports that the Minnesota Vikings, Indianapolis Colts, Tennessee Titans, New England Patriots, Detroit Lions, Atlanta Falcons and Jacksonville Jaguars have expressed interest in the Chiefs corner. The person told USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation.
Both sides have until mid-July to finalize a long-term extension or until the NFL’s trade deadline to part ways via trade.
Sneed is one of the best zone cover corners in the NFL. According to Next Gen Stats, Sneed allowed no touchdowns and a league-low four yards per target while in zone coverage in 2023.”
Do the New England Patriots need Sneed over other areas?

Sneed emerged as a pivotal player in the Chiefs’ triumph over the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl, showcasing his prowess as one of the top cornerbacks in the league during the previous season. His addition would undoubtedly bolster the formidable defensive lineup of the Patriots.
However, amidst the potential gains Sneed could bring to the Patriots, it prompts consideration whether that’s the primary area where New England should direct its focus. To secure victories, especially in tightly contested matches, the Patriots must prioritize augmenting their offensive arsenal with potent weapons for the upcoming season.
