The Kansas City Chiefs have finalized a four-year, $2.47 million deal with third-round rookie tight end Tony Moeaki, according to a league source.

The deal includes the standard base salaries of $320,000, $405,000, $490,000 and $575,000 as well as a roster bonus and a fourth-year escalator clause that can significantly boost the maximum value of the deal.

If the escalator clause is triggered, Moaki can make as much as $3.32 million.

Moeaki is an athletic 6-foot-3, 245-pounder with 4.68 speed in the 40-yard dash and a 36 ½ inch vertical leap and a 10-0 broad jump.

He has also bench pressed 225 pounds 25 times.

Voted first-team All-Big Ten Conference by the coaches, Moeaki caught 75 career passes for 955 yards and 11 touchdowns.

Last year, he caught a career-high 30 passes for 387 yards and four touchdowns.
