Chiefs cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is reportedly a Falcons free agency target after urging Kansas City brass to “pay me” following the team’s Super Bowl victory.
Sneed, a 2020 fourth-round pick, will see his four-year, $3.9 million contract expire this offseason.
And according sportskeedaThe Falcons are “on the trail” of the 27-year-old, and other teams are also expected to express interest once the legal tampering period begins.
The report also named the Broncos as a team that was interested in Sneed, while the defensive back teased a possible move to the Eagles over the weekend.
Sneed posted a photo on Instagram of himself doing an airplane motion with his arms, and captioned the photo with an Eagles emoji.

Eagles receiver DeVonta Smith liked the post.
Three Eagles players, Boston Scott, Milton Williams and Griffin Herbert, were Sneed’s college teammates at Louisiana Tech.
And Sportskeeda has reported that the trio is “actively recruiting” the Chiefs star to come to Philadelphia.
Speaking earlier this month on Up & Adams, Sneed had just two words for general manager Brett Veach before his contract expires this offseason.
“Pay me,” Sneed said. ‘Pay me, pay me. That’s what I have to say: pay me.

Now he is set to receive a large salary increase, according to estimates cited by the Arrowhead Report placing his next contract somewhere in the range between $15.5 million and $17.5 million.
Kansas City could also place the franchise tag on Sneed, which would keep him for one more year and pay him $18.8 million.
Sneed recorded two tackles in the Super Bowl and impressed in coverage as the Chiefs beat the 49ers 25-22.
He also started 16 games in the regular season and all four in the playoffs.
