Tom Pelissero of NFL Network said Friday that Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones, who was given the franchise tag for the 2020 season, has had contract talks with the team but that no long-term offer has materialized yet.
Jones, who has 24.5 sacks in his last two seasons, made the Pro Bowl last year. The four-year veteran has played for Kansas City since the team took him 37th overall in the 2016 draft.
The Mississippi State product helped anchor an impressive defense that allowed the seventh-fewest points per game last year.
