Four days after being traded to Tennessee from the Chiefs, cornerback L’Jarius Sneed has agreed to terms on a four-year, $76.4 million deal with the Titans, including $55 million in guaranteed money and a $20 million signing bonus.
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Tuesday that Sneed’s new contract (at an average annual value of $19.1 million per year) places him ahead of Jaylon Johnson ($19 million per year), and just behind Marshon Lattimore ($19.4 million), Trevon Diggs ($19.4 million) and Marlon Humphrey ($19.5 million), making Sneed among the top seven highest-paid cornerbacks in the NFL.
Kansas City traded Sneed for a 2025 third-round pick and a swap of 2024 seventh-round selections. Sneed has won two Super Bowls with the Chiefs coming off a career-high season with 14 passes defensed and not allowing a single touchdown, Including playoff games, Sneed finished first in completion percentage allowed (48.2) among those seeing at least 80 targets.
