16 days ahead of regular season, Chiefs preparing for reality without Chris Jones

A little more than two weeks before the Kansas City Chiefs’ first regular-season game, there remains an overwhelming uncertainty about the defensive line.

Defensive tackle Chris Jones missed all of training camp — has chosen to continue his holdout even with the team back in Kansas City. Defensive lineman Charles Omenihu is suspended for the first six games of the regular season.

Defensive tackle Matt Dickerson, who had mixed in with the first team at camp, is dealing with a turf toe injury that has him out of practice. Defensive tackle Turk Wharton — who is recovering from ACL surgery — just returned to the lineup on Tuesday.
