That's because you believed it to be true when it wasn't.

It’s not clear how interested the Chiefs were or if Kansas City made an offer to Peat in free agency. They very well could have been competing with the Saints to sign him and were simply outbid for his services. Peat’s five-year contract is worth $57.5 million, which seems a bit out of the Chiefs’ price range.

Maybe they liked him on the cheap but there is absolutely no way they were going to pay him $11 million per.
