MISURI, United States.- The NFL team Kansas City Chiefs continue to show interest in signing free agent wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, according to recent reports.
Despite competition from the New England Patriots and Tennessee Titans, the Chiefs have maintained contact with Hopkins, although they are on the periphery of the negotiations.
The main hurdle for the Chiefs is their limited salary cap space, but they could create more space by signing All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones to a contract extension.

Salary cap limitations could make it difficult for the Chiefs to sign DeAndre Hopkins
The lack of salary cap space is shaping up to be the biggest hurdle for the Kansas City Chiefs in their bid to sign DeAndre Hopkins. With just $409,942 available, the Chiefs have the fewest cap space in the NFL right now. However, They could create additional space by signing All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones to a contract extension.
The importance of the signing of Chris Jones for the possible arrival of DeAndre Hopkins
To address salary caps, the Chiefs could secure the signing of DeAndre Hopkins by extending the contract of All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones. Jones, who can become a free agent at the end of the 2023 season, has $28.2 million against the cap this season. Hopkins’ arrival would largely depend on the Chiefs’ ability to pull off this contract extension. Chris Jones – Kansas City Chiefs
