The Chiefs confirmed the deal, which is pending
the result of a physical.
According to multiple reports, Kansas City traded its 2021 picks
in the first round (No. 31 overall), third round (94) and fourth
round (136) as well as a 2022 fifth-round selection in exchange
for Brown and a 2021 second-round pick (No. 58) and a 2022
sixth-round selection.
Brown, 24, will fill a major void along the offensive line for
the Chiefs, who parted ways with offensive tackles Mitchell
Schwartz and Eric Fisher in the offseason.
Brown reportedly requested a trade from Baltimore this offseason
after expressing his desire to remain as a left tackle.
In late January, Brown tweeted, "I'm a LEFT Tackle."
Brown has started 42 games at both left and right tackle and has
yet to miss a game since being selected out of Oklahoma by the
Ravens in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
He filled in for Ronnie Stanley at left tackle after the latter
sustained a season-ending ankle injury in Week 8 in 2020. Brown
had been the team's right tackle since coming into the NFL.
Brown was a Pro Bowl selection in 2019 and 2020.
