The Kansas City Chiefs are in agreement with veteran cornerback Kaiir Elam, the former first-round pick’s agent told NFL Network on Thursday.

Elam, drafted 23rd overall by Buffalo in 2022, has tallied 114 tackles, two interceptions and three fumble recoveries in 43 games (19 starts) with the Bills (2022-24), Dallas Cowboys (2025) and Tennessee Titans (2025).

Terms of the deal were not disclosed by agent Jonathan Perzley of Sportstars Inc.

Kansas City has voids to fill in the secondary after losing both starting cornerbacks this offseason. The Chiefs traded Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams and Jaylen Watson signed with the Rams in free agency.
