Arrowheadlines: Clock ‘starting to tick’ for Chiefs, Chris Jones to strike deal

The clock is ticking for Chris Jones and the Chiefs; who will blink first and when? | The Athletic

Entering the final year of his four-year, $80 million contract, Jones wants an extension from the Chiefs that will make him at least the second-highest-paid player at his position, according to a league source. The NFL’s highest-paid defensive tackle is the Los Angeles Rams’ Aaron Donald, who signed a three-year, $95 million contract restructure last summer. Last month, the New York Jets’ Quinnen Williams signed a four-year, $96 million contract extension with $66 million guaranteed, making him the second-highest-paid player at his position.
