Franchise-tagged Chris Jones tweets perhaps he 'won't play' for Chiefs in 2020

Chris Jones is hinting at the possibility of holding out as the wait for a deal continues between the Kansas City Chiefs and their franchise-tagged defensive lineman.

Jones, replying to an NFL Network video regarding his contract situation, tweeted Tuesday night that not playing in 2020 was an option, bringing up running back Le'Veon Bell's 2018 holdout with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Or I won't play. @LeVeonBell told me about this

The Chiefs used the non-exclusive franchise tag on Jones in March.
