Then I don’t see any way that comment is anything more than trolling. It would put KC in position to have him next year on the franchise tag for less than his cap charge this year, while also giving them all that extra cap room for the year. And still having him for the stretch run and playoffs this year.

Right now if he shows up and plays on the current deal, he has missed training camp and preseason and a game check and a few million, but franchise tagging him is still too costly and therefore risky for KC. Even holding out thru two regular season games might be enough to make the franchise tag more palatable (considering KC gets a 1.3M swing it’s way between the salary withheld that rolls over in 24 cap space plus the 250k reduction of his franchise tag number).

That threat ain’t real unless his agents don’t realize how it works out.

Keep it in D.C., dumb bundle of sticks.

The way I see everything worded from what we've previously looked up on this, PYS only includes payments made to the player.

Verbage: A player's PYS is composed of his base salary, roster and reporting bonuses, prorated signing bonus and other payments to players for playing in the NFL for the previous league year

If he doesn't play, he gets no pay. Therefore it can't count to his salary.

Wouldn't shock me if he does. We apparently bring in players who choose to have reeruned representation.

Quinnen Williams might be available? Because otherwise I don't think a cast-off is going to help that much.

We don't need him until November anyway.

Or what, reerun? LMAO

It was just a suggestion. If you want to look like a useless bundle of sticks in the main forum as well, be my guest.

Not sure where the money would come from to do that either.

The dude that he responded to was a complete dipshit, like a lot of dipshits here. He was 100% trolling. He misses 8 games and drops his franchise tag amount for next year and gives us the extra cap space, but that also gives us the opportunity to franchise him two years in a row.

Take $8 mil off of his salary this year and that drops him to ~ $19 mil, so it'd only cost us $22.8 mil to franchise him next year and with the extra $8 mil rolled over, then we'd basically be paying $14 mil for him in 2024. We could then franchise tag him again in 2025 for just $27 mil. That puts him at basically 2 yr/~$50 mil and the Chiefs would only be paying ~$42 mil over those 2 years because of the cap rollover. Hell if we wanted to we could even franchise him again in 2026 for $33 mil. That's a 3 year/$80-$85 mil deal.

If he misses 8 games, then he legitimately has no leverage and it would allow the team to franchise tag him until he's out of his prime. There is no way in hell he's gonna do that unless he/his agents don't know the rules.

Holy shit, shut up. ****ing loony ass DC filth.

LMAO
Yeah, Q's probably not on the menu.


I think we're just not going to have an interior pass-rush from a DL/DLs for 6 weeks. At least we only face one truly gifted QB in that stretch. Maybe we'll just sneak through before it becomes an issue.

That would be pretty ideal for the Chiefs to be honest. Chiefs save 13 million dollars and still get Jones for the important games. It isn't like we need him for the beginning of the season anyway. But...he won't sit out 8 games. He's full of shit - or reeruned.

nt

I can't get behind hurting the team this year for one man's ego and gain, no matter how well deserved it is, Chris Jones can stay out until Week 8 and do whatever he wants, but he's burning bridges and is going to end up getting traded to the Cardinals at this point.
