KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Tony Gonzalez, the most productive tight end in NFL history, will be traded to a contender if the Kansas City Chiefs get the right price.
Three people familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity that the nine-time Pro Bowl player could be dealt before the Tuesday trade deadline. The three didn't want to be identified because a deal hasn't been struck.
Gonzalez, who holds the NFL tight end record for receptions, touchdown catches and yards receiving, is active in civic and charitable affairs and enjoys great popularity in Kansas City. He has always said he would like to end his career with the Chiefs, who drafted him in the first round out of California in 1997.
But the Chiefs (1-4) are rebuilding from the bottom up and not likely to contend for the Super Bowl any time soon. In spite of all his personal accomplishments, Gonzalez, 32, has never even won a postseason game.
He would like an opportunity to play in a Super Bowl and the rebuilding Chiefs would like to acquire extra draft picks.
Two people involved in the situation said there had been discussion with the New York Giants, but that talks had not been productive.
The Giants traded tight end Jeremy Shockey to New Orleans last summer for Nos. 2 and 5 drafts pick in 2009. Shockey's replacement, Kevin Boss, has been a disappointment even though the defending Super Bowl champs are undefeated.
Chiefs general manager Carl Peterson is a notoriously tough negotiator and would probably demand at least a second-round pick for the man many Chiefs fans believe is the greatest offensive player in team history.

I wonder if the ans will make a play for him
Which contenders need a TE? The Giants seemed like a good match-it still may come to fruition.
bills?
do not tell me me he will go to new england
The Steelers would be a great place. Big Ben would love to have him.
Not sure...kind of doubt it. I was actually thinking SD Chargers....but they have Gates, albeit he's banged up, so that wouldn't make sense and I doubt KC would trade him to a division rival.
I can't see giving up more than a 4th round pick for a 32 year old tight end.
This is exactly what the Raiders need to push them over the edge from a contender, to a super contender,
