Patrick Mahomes is a two-time Super Bowl champion and has won a couple of NFL MVP trophies over the course of his standout career.

The seventh-year signal-caller agreed to the terms of a restructured contract with the Kansas City Chiefs, which effectively makes him the highest-paid player in the NFL over the next four years. While Mahomes wanted to seize the opportunity to increase his income, he also wants the Chiefs to still have enough salary cap space to fill out a competitive roster.

"You have to watch and see what’s going on around the league and find that right spot," Mahomes said Wednesday in his first comments since reworking his deal. "I think we found a good one in this negotiation we did to keep cap space to get other guys signed, but obviously I’ve got more money up front, and we’ll renegotiate when we get to the right time."

Mahomes signed a 10-year contract worth up to $450 million in 2020. He has nine years remaining on the deal. The revision moves up a portion of the money from the last five seasons to the first four, giving him $210.6 million over that span – the most over any four seasons in NFL history.
