Chiefs bolster pass rush with deal for tackle Jarran Reed

<p>KANSAS CITY, Mo. &mdash; The Kansas City Chiefs and defensive tackle Jarran Reed agreed to a $5 million, one-year contract that could be worth up to $7 million and gives the AFC champions another interior pass rusher to play alongside Chris Jones.</p>
<p>The deal was reached late Sunday and represents another big step toward improving the Chiefs’ meager pass rush.</p>
<p>The 28-year-old Reed was a second-round pick by the Seahawks in the 2016 draft. He’s spent his entire career in Seattle, where he had a reputation as a run-stuffer but showed he could get to the quarterback. Reed had 10 1/2 sacks in 2018 and and 6 1/2 sacks last season.</p>
<p>He also was suspended the first six games of the 2019 season in connection with an alleged domestic disturbance.</p>
