Inks deal with Kansas City
Humphries signed a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Chiefs on Friday, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Friday that Humphries was medically cleared to return to football activities. Humphries tore his ACL in Week 17 of the 2023 regular season, and though he was released by the Cardinals in March, he continued to rehab throughout the summer in the hopes of returning to NFL action in 2024. He worked out with the Giants in October, but he will take his talents to Kansas City, and his contract has a maximum value of $4.5 million with incentives, per Rapoport. Humphries spent the first nine years of his NFL career with the Cardinals and was named to the Pro Bowl in 2021. He'll provide veteran depth for a Chiefs' offensive line that has allowed 22 sacks across 10 regular-season games, though 10 of those have come over the last three contests, per Nate Taylor and RJ Kraft of The Athletic.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could return to Arizona
Humphries, recovering from a torn ACL, could be an option for the Cardinals once he's medically cleared, Howard Balzer of CardianlsWire reports.
ANALYSIS
Humphries tore his ACL in Week 17 of the 2023 season and is still several weeks away from being cleared for a return. He started 15 games with Arizona in 2023, all of which came at left tackle. While not an immediate option, Humphries could provide valuable depth to a Cardinals' offensive line that has already lost Jonah Wiliams, Christian Jones and Kelvin Beachum to various injuries.
