The Kansas City Chiefs agreed to terms with first-round draft pick Peter Woods, his agents confirmed to ESPN on Monday.

The 6-foot-3, 310-pound defensive tackle receives a four-year, $18 million deal as the 29th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft out of Clemson. Woods' contract includes a team option for a fifth season in 2030.


Representatives Adie von Gontard and Ray Haija of YM APAA Sports confirmed the deal.

Woods, 21, was a first-team All-ACC selection at Clemson in 2025 after posting two sacks and 30 tackles in 12 games. Over three seasons with the Tigers, he recorded 84 tackles (14.5 for losses) with five sacks and two forced fumbles.
