Since being selected at the tail end of the second round during the 2021 NFL Draft, Humphrey has become the undisputed anchor of Kansas City's offensive line. He was named to the PFWA All-Rookie Team in 2021, earned Second-Team All-Pro honors in 2022, and has made the Pro Bowl each of his last two seasons.
Over the course of his three-year career, Humphrey has also never missed a single start. Now, he's the highest-paid center in the entire NFL.
