Chris Jones Agrees to 4-Year Contract Extension Ahead of Deadline
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...ad-of-deadline
While the deadline is approaching, the Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to a four-year contract extension with defensive tackle Chris Jones, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen. Schefter noted the deal is worth $85 million with $60 million guaranteed. The Chiefs placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on Jones in March, guaranteeing him $16.1 million for the upcoming season. He and Kansas City have until 4 p.m. ET Wednesday to finalize a long-term contract. |

Get some more cap space next season by dumping Okafor and Hitchens.

Kelce is also going to be 32 when his contract is up IIRC. Add the risk of a Franchise tag pushing him out to 33 and I don't think we need to worry about it being Kittle money.

Kelce is not going to go anywhere. He will make his money, but its not going to break the bank.

I wonder if they think about trading Nnadi in the next year...maybe a player for player deal for a LB or CB. |

I like Ward and if he continues to ascend, maybe you pay him... but now would be the time to do so really. The organization has a ton of leverage given that he will only be a RFA next year. Can’t even get tagged until 2022.
This is when you lowball him with life changing money ($7-9m per year), hoping that he bites early instead of betting on himself another couple seasons. |

Remember when King Carl used to piss players off so much in negotiations that they vowed to never sign another contract with the Chiefs? I don't miss those days.

No problem. Here's a link to the details:
https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2020...tract-details/ According to a number of reports, Jones’ contract is for four years and reaches a total value of $85 million. Jones’ deal comes with $37 million in guaranteed salary with a total of $60 million guaranteed in case of injury. There are $5 million in incentives attached to the contract as well. |

When you consider that Deforest Buckner just got $84m/4, you really have to love this deal for KC.
I think Jones is quite a bit better than Buckner, who is also a great player. |

I also think Jones was pushing harder for sacks to get a better contract, which made him a bit less effective at stopping the run. Now he got paid, I think we see some run game improvements as well.
