The Kansas City Chiefs have been one of the most successful teams in the NFL over the past three seasons.

To keep that success going, they’ve had to invest in their core of players, but also make continued changes to keep the team competitive. They’ve done a good job keeping the band together after back-to-back Super Bowl runs, but how has their spending changed ahead of the 2021 NFL season? You just might be surprised by how little or how much the team is currently spending at certain positions and how it stacks up against the rest of the league.

Here’s a quick rundown of how much the Chiefs are currently spending on each position on the 90-man offseason roster with contract information via Spotrac:
