And Chris Jones is 29. Von Miller was 33 when he signed that contract. Two totally different scenarios. Not to even mention Von was a year removed from missing an entire season with an injury and had multiple other major injuries in his career including an ACL tear. The situations are not comparable at all.

The longer you’re in the league the more likely you are to get hurt unfortunately. Mitch Schwartz was an iron man for health until he wasn’t. Joe Thuney was until he wasn’t this year (did he tear his pec?), Fisher for injured at 30 and it ended his career, Kelce started having injury concerns last year and they legit thought his knee injury was season ending at first, Tamba Hali started having bad injury problems at 33.

It’s a real concern paying these guys insane money once they enter their 30’s, especially if you already have a highly paid QB on the cap.
