Chiefs’ All-Pro DT Chris Jones absent for start of regular-season game prep
Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones did not report to the team to prepare for their season opener against the Detroit Lions, indicating that he is unlikely to play. Jones has been holding out in an attempt to secure a long-term contract. He is in the final year of his current deal and has accrued significant fines for missing offseason workouts, training camp, and preseason games. Jones will lose approximately $1.1 million for each regular-season game he misses. The Chiefs are preparing to face a formidable Lions offense, and Jones’ absence is compounded by the suspension of pass rusher Charles Omenihu.
