He thinks he is a vital (in the true meaning of the word) part of the team's success. He is not. He is massively instrumental in the team's success, and not all 32 teams can win without their best defensive player, but KC is one of them.

I'm simply saying that being anti-worker and pro-employer in this situation doesn't make the worker's actions unethical. They just piss you off because you - like the rest of us - think the Chiefs' best chance at a Lombardi trophy this year is with a healthy and participating Chris Jones.

Chris Jones has misunderstood that to mean that he has a supreme leverage position, which is not true.

Patrick Mahomes II could make this team change their uniform colors if he wanted to. Chris Jones can hold out, cost himself money, alienate the fan base and likely some teammates, and risk the defense getting along without him.

It's stupid.
We're about to find out how vital he is to winning.

If needing Jones healthy gives them the best chance to win a SB, i'd say he's pretty vital.
