KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- From the time he was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016, through his eight seasons with the team and particularly as he was negotiating his new contract, defensive tackle Chris Jones never lost his desire to finish his playing career where it started.
"For me, that was the plan from the beginning,'' Jones said Tuesday, a day after signing his new deal. "Since [the Chiefs] drafted me, I never planned to play for another organization. Deep down I felt like I was never leaving. ... I always figured that something could be done.
