Chiefs safety Berry signs franchise tender
Chiefs safety Eric Berry signed his franchise tender and reported to camp, likely missing the preseason finale against Green Bay. The deal pays just over 10.8 million this season, making him the league's highest paid safety, with a long term agreement hoped post season. Berry, who battled cancer last year, played all games and posted 55 tackles and two interceptions. Coach Andy Reid welcomed him back and noted he needs football shape. Berry is unlikely to play Thursday, with focus on opener versus San Diego September 11.
