Chiefs RB requested release on Twitter last week. Andy Reid addressed that topic Friday

Seven days ago, on a Friday night during the Chiefs’ bye week, running back Ronald Jones sent a Twitter post that quickly went viral.

“Sure would like a RELEASE right about now,” the tweet read.

Jones, who signed as a free agent with the Chiefs in March, has yet to be part of the active game-day roster in Kansas City’s seven games this season.

Coach Andy Reid was asked about Jones’ situation Friday, specifically about managing expectations for guys like Jones who aren’t playing as much as they’d like.
