Kansas City Chiefs, Danna agree on 3-year, $24M deal

KANSAS CITY: Chiefs defensive end Mike Danna has agreed on a three-year, $24 million deal to remain in Kansas City, a person familiar with the contract told The Associated Press on Friday (Saturday in Manila).

The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal is pending a physical. Danna had a career-best 6 1/2 sacks last season, plus seven tackles for loss and 13 quarterback hits, while playing 74 percent of the defensive snaps.

A fifth-round pick in 2020, Danna has 17 sacks in four seasons. Meanwhile, linebacker Kyle Van Noy is returning to Baltimore after agreeing on a two-year, $9 million contract, a person familiar with the terms told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal hasn't been announced, said Van Noy will make $5.25 million in 2024 and can earn up to $11 million with incentives.

Van Noy had a career-high nine sacks in 14 games last season after signing with the Ravens in September. He had 30 tackles, nine quarterback hits and forced two fumbles.

He was a second-round pick by Detroit in 2014 and played a key role on New England's defense when the Patriots won the Super Bowl following the 2018 season.
