New Orleans holds a special place in the stories of both the Chiefs and the National Football League: It was the location of Kansas City's first-ever Super Bowl win in 1970, a game that helped change the course of the NFL.

Dan Crumb is tasked with maximizing revenue at the team, which is vying for its third consecutive Super Bowl title this weekend.

Roster construction in the modern-day NFL is often a matter of priorities and that meant the Chiefs could only realistically keep one of these two players, with the team moving to land Jones, handing him a five-year $158.75million deal to remain at Arrowhead Stadium, while Sneed was franchise tagged and then traded to the Tennessee Titans.
