Exactly. Stinks of desperation after 1 week. Without Kelce and Jones, the Queefs are an average team. They still have nothing at WR.  

This is definitely an overreaction after week 1. But we all knew that they have a bad group of receivers. They better hope Kelce recovers and doesn't get hurt again.

 

And the Chiefs defense seems to always struggle for a decent part of the season before putting all the pieces together later on. But that is WITH Chris Jones, so who knows?

Actually thought the KC offensive looked weak against the Lions. I think that could prove to be a problem going forward.

Offensive line

Yea alot of ppl were saying get rid of Jones, invest in the O. Their d looked fine 

Detroit is nice and they get Jameson Williams back in week 7 which is big

The Lions' offense was also pretty bad.  Goff missed a lot of throws.  I'm amazed they still won.

Apparently he had somebody explain the math to him.   Still a one year deal is idiotic on his part, unless it included a no franchise tag clause.

 

Yeah I'm thinking it includes that.

This is going to be the worst decision he ever made. 

 

He was entering the final year of his contract, right after tying a career high 15.5 sacks. The Chiefs offered him an extension for $27 million a year, making him the 2nd highest paid DT right under Donald. 

 

Now he's only making slightly more money THIS year, and will be out a ton of money if he doesn't repeat what he did last season. He's only ever had double digit sacks twice in his career, so if he has just an OK season, forget any team offering him more money than Donald (like he wants), he'll be lucky to get that $27 million the Chiefs were offering him!

Never understood the hold out and then accept a deal barely better than what they were holding out for. Jones, Sauqon, Jacobs

Deal is worth up to $25 million.

 

Quote

Jones will sign a one-year contract worth up to $25 million, per sources informed of the situation.

 

The $19.5 million base salary he was already set to make (minus $1.08 million game check for Week 1 and fines incurred for skipping training camp) remains the same, but he has the chance to make more with another successful campaign.

 

The details of Jones' incentives are as follows, according to Rapoport:

 

$1 million for 35% playing time.

$1 million for 50% playing time

$1.25 million for 10 sacks.

Another $500K for 15 sacks.

$1 million for first-team All Pro and Super Bowl LVIII appearance

$2 million for Defensive Player of the Year and Super Bowl LVIII win.

 

A notable aspect of the pact is that Kansas City retained the ability to franchise tag Jones in 2024, ensuring leverage over the star defensive tackle and potentially keeping him off the open market. The tag number would be about $32.4 million in 2024, NFL Network's James Palmer reported (a 120% increase on his 2023 cap number).

 

Looking at the incentives, unless he’s injured he should easily hit the first 2, making the contract likely worth at least $21.5M. He might be able to hit the 10 sack incentive, which would push the contract value up to $22.75M.

 

The last $3.5M in incentives will be harder to hit and depend more on the chiefs as a whole.

 

Chiefs also retain the ability to tag him.

 

So he’s really not getting that much more.

so basically chris jones has to perform/stay healthy to recover some of the losses he's accrued via fine and game check. the chiefs get a player who will be extremely motivated, and have control over him if they want it after the season. for him to reach the highest incentives, it means a super bowl appearance, him winning DPOY or a super bowl win. i'm sure the chiefs will be happy to pay whatever at that point. 

 

what did chris jones gain in all of this? his agents are morons.
