With less than two weeks to go before the start of the 2013 NFL league year, the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers have reached an agreement on a deal to send quarterback Alex Smith to Kansas City, according to a person informed of the impending trade.

The person spoke to USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity because the move can't become official until March 12, when the league year begins.

The agreement on the deal between the Niners and Chiefs was first reported by FoxSports.com.

The Chiefs were clearly looking for an upgrade over Matt Cassel, who is due $7.5 million in base salary this season and is likely to be released. The team spoke to the Philadelphia Eagles about a possible trade for Nick Foles, whom Andy Reid coached last season, but the Eagles said they are intent on keeping Foles.
