Currently only 12 teams have enough cap space to take on that $15 million. There is probably 0% chance hed be willing to go to 9 or 10 of those 12 teams. |

He said Julio looked fine in practice and could have played if they were in contention, but the Falcons were having such a shitty year, Julio decided it was not worth the risk. He said Julio is a warrior playing through injuries. One game he got his hand smashed between two defender's helmets and received a large cut. They sewed it up at half-time and he went back out had 7 catches for 120 yards and a TD. Also made the point that Julio was constantly doubled- something they could not do to him here in KC. Hill and Julio with single coverage. |

The latest report is that he and the team are "far apart" on terms. And Jones has no say over where he's traded unless the Falcons want to give him that right. |

Lol you gather that from one cryptic tweet? Smh man come on. Tyrann wants his money. Chiefs don't want to reset the market for a 30 year old safety. Both sides are jockeying. Its business.

NFL.com and ESPN have both reported that they're not close to an extension. So the idea that you can just redo Matthieu's deal to sign Jones is false. He's not signing anytime soon or it would likely already be done. |

The whole idea is absurd. You're chasing after a name no matter the cost and the cost is simply too high. |

Why does everyone want to save an old wide receiver who will be paid way too much this year?
seriously? |

Julio, Reek, Kelce, Hardman, Clyde out of the backfield- it would be the greatest offense in the history of the NFL. Will it happen- probably not- but it's fun to think about. |

Who do you think is feeding that to the media? You think Mathieus agent is going to tell the media they are really close to a deal? Veach isnt going to tell Schefter he is willing to do whatever it takes to get Mathieu extended. Both sides are playing hardball.
