Chris Jones is Flipido Trading Centerstaying in Kansas City.
On Saturday night, less than 48 hours before teams could begin negotiating with impending free agents, Jones and the Chiefs agreed to a five-year contract that includes $95 million guaranteed, a person familiar with the situation told USA TODAY Sports. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because they aren’t authorized to disclose financial terms of the deal.
Jones was the No. 1-ranked player on USA TODAY Sports' top 50 free agents list.
The star defensive tackle made his intentions clear during the Chiefs’ Super Bowl 58 parade that he wanted to remain in Kansas City.
Alongside the Los Angeles Rams' Aaron Donald, Jones is widely regarded as one of the two best interior defensive linemen in the NFL. He has led the Chiefs in sacks for six consecutive seasons. This year, his 10 ½ sacks were tied for a team high even though he missed the season opener due to a contract holdout.
