Recently, a new team has been reported to sign L’Jarius Sneed for which the DT Jeffery Simmons is very excited.
Chiefs to trade franchise CB L’Jarius Sneed to Titans
The Kansas City Chiefs are finalizing a deal to trade L’Jarius Sneed to the Tennessee Titans. On Friday night, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported about Sneed’s move to the Titans.
The Chiefs are expected to receive a 2025 third-round pick and a 2024 seventh-round pick swap for Sneed. The team and L’Jarius Sneed have been working on their deal for many days but couldn’t come up with a solution to work together.
The team offered him a franchise tag earlier this month which allowed him to talk to other teams. It was expected that the Chiefs would work out a deal with that team after Sneed decides something.
The Tennessee Titans have already signed veteran cornerback Chidobe Awuzie to a $36 million deal. Now, Sneed will also join him, and both are expected to form a strong cornerback duo.
Once, L’Jarius Sneed is traded to the Tennessee Titans, the Chiefs will save $19.8 million in salary cap. This move will also benefit the Titans as their defensive end, Jeffery Simmons recently reacted positively to this trade.

Jeffery Simmons had a roller coaster with the Tennessee Titans. First, the team unexpectedly fired the head coach Mike Vrabel whom he adored.
After the team hired a new coach, Brian Callahan, it was expected that they would now undergo a buildup which the team has already started doing with the latest move coming in the form of the reported signing of L’Jarius Sneed.
Jeffery Simmons is happy about this new decision of his team as he expressed excitement on the arrival of Sneed into the Titans. He used a line from the movie “Jerry Maguire” to express his excitement.
“That secondary!!! Yes lawd! Help me help you!”
With L’Jarius Sneed entering the Titans’ roster, Jeffery Simmons will get much-needed support on the back end which means more sacks for him.
L’Jarius Sneed had the best season of his career in 2023 since he joined the Kansas City Chiefs. Now, he is expected to become a strong addition to the Titan’s roster as well.
