"Took the L and got scared": Chris Jones contract compromise after Chiefs' loss to Lions leaves fans trolling Super Bowl champs

Kansas City Chiefs star Chris Jones ends holdout, agrees to revised one-year deal, expected to play in Week 2.

Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones has officially ended his holdout and reached a revised one-year deal with the team. Despite missing the entire off-season, including training camp and preseason, Jones is expected to return to the team for Sunday's Week 2 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Fans of the NFL took to trolling the Chiefs after it was announced that Jones would only be retained for this season. However, the details of his revised contract for this year are currently unknown. In 2020, Jones signed a four-year $80 million deal and was set to earn $19.5 million this season. With the revised contract, it is expected that he will make over $20 million, although the exact amount has yet to be disclosed.

General manager Brett Veach expressed his satisfaction with getting the deal done and emphasized the importance of Jones as a leader on the team. Veach acknowledged Jones' elite skills and his instrumental role in the team's success, including their Super Bowl championship runs. He also thanked Jones and his representation, the Katz brothers, for their dedication and patience throughout the negotiation process.

As Jones prepares to make his season debut against the Jaguars, the Chiefs will be aiming to avoid starting the season with a 0-2 record, following their loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 1.
