Chiefs DT Chris Jones Hoping For Time Off During Training Camp
Some may say "not a good look" after inking a big deal. If Andy & the rest of the team is good with... why not?
_______________________________________________________________

A year ago, superstar defensive tackle Chris Jones skipped the offseason program, training camp and the season’s opening game as he and the Kansas City Chiefs negotiated a new contract.

Ultimately, the two sides agreed on a stopgap one-year deal to get Jones back on the field. Then in early March, he and the team finally signed a five-year, $159 million contract that included $95 million in guarantees.

Even after missing all that practice time last season, Jones still earned a second consecutive first-team All-Pro nod. He’ll turn 30 before the team opens its 2024 training camp at Missouri Western State Univerity in St. Joseph in mid-July — and he’s hoping that under the circumstances, head coach Andy Reid will let him skip some practices.

“Listen man, I’ve already been talking to Andy about, ‘Let me skip out on training camp. I’m a little older, right?’” he told reporters during his youth football camp in Overland Park this week, per the Kansas City Star. “I can feel it. I can feel when we have a day on training camp. Give me like two days off and one day on, then — and we maybe can work something out, you know?”

It doesn’t appear that Reid is enthusiastic about the idea.

“He just looked at me,” smiled Jones. “So the conversation is still ongoing.”

However much time he spends on the practice field in St. Joseph, Jones thinks his approach will remain the same.

“The mindset is always the same: being in the best shape you could be in, [finding] a way to interact with the community — but also better yourself — doing a good deed a week,” he said. “I don’t think my mindset ever changed, year in and year out [through different contract situations]. [It’s] just [that] I get a little wiser; I get a few more gray hairs.

“And we’re gonna keep this thing going.”

Players will begin reporting the week of July 15. We’ll get our first look at a training camp session on Sunday, July 21.

Well I was pretty skeptical of giving Jones a third deal the whole time it was being negotiated on CP. I also figured if the Chiefs ever got their money's worth, it would be in the post season.
I will be pleasantly surprised if he is bringing it every game of the regular season for the length of the contract.

Considering his age and how often he gets double teamed, I don't see an issue keeping his mileage down. Postseason is where they're really going to need him. He shines in big games. Especially postseason.

Can't start playing favorites. Next thing you know half the team will want to take a practice or 2 off during the week.

Besides Chris is supposed to be one of the leaders on the team and setting a example for the younger players.


What kind of example does that set?

You could also take it as him playing around though he probably at least is testing the waters to get out of a few practices

I love that Andy gets his guys preseason snaps and runs hard training camps. And I ESPECIALLY love that we're winning all these Super Bowls doing so while the rest of the league is pussing out. Not to mention we've been a way healthier team than everybody else.

So I kind of want Andy to tell Chris to **** off. Keep working your ass off. It's good for you and good for the team.

I think he's just being Chris Jones. He's probably mostly kidding. He'd like to take some time off, but he's just ****ing with people.
