A week ago, the Kansas City Chiefs locked up the leader of their offense after signing Patrick Mahomes to a historic long-term deal. On Tuesday, the Super Bowl champions took another major step toward repeating by locking up star defender Chris Jones with a long-term extension, a source told Yahoo Sports.
The Chiefs and Jones agreed Tuesday to a four-year deal worth $85 million, including incentives, a source told Yahoo Sports. In Jones’ extension, $60 million is guaranteed and doesn’t include a signing bonus. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that $37 million will be due to Jones upon signing.
