Chiefs Star Willing to Pony Up to Keep QB Kamario Taylor at Mississippi State
Chiefs DT Chris Jones said he's willing to foot some of the bill to keep rising star QB Kamario Taylor at Mississippi State.
Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor has been having an impressive season, leading the SEC with 1,010 total yards and 12 touchdowns while ranking No. 24 in the Associated Press Top 25 Rankings. Despite his stellar performance, there is concern that he may transfer to another Power 4 school to secure a larger NIL deal. Mississippi State athletic director Zac Selmon is confident that the team will do whatever is necessary to retain Taylor.
Kansas City Chiefs star defensive tackle Chris Jones, a former Mississippi State player, has pledged to make a significant donation to help keep Taylor at the university. With the NIL market offering salaries ranging from $5 million to $10 million for top QBs next season, Jones' contribution could be crucial in persuading Taylor to stay.
