I’m not so sure

Chris Jones has already seen more money than anyone who posts here ever will.

He can easily afford to take the ‘moral high ground’ whatever that means for him.

Lol, saw that in the replay and just laughed out loud. I can't imagine what would go through my mind if I saw that man/mountain flying through the air about to land on top of me. i know I'd blow my liver out my ass on impact though.


Also, how did he get all that tonnage into the air like that? Looks like a humpback whale gracefully breaching. over someone's boat.

Guys. They aren't trading him at this point in the season. He'll show up, play and either get tagged and traded or let walk.

Don't overcomplicate this.

If I made 30M a year and I could get 1.5 months off and it would only cost me 1M I think I'd do it every single year.

That’s amazing he can move like that.

It would make zero sense. If he sat out he would only do so if he believed he could get another deal so much more than what the Chiefs are offering that it would make up for $20 million he loses this year. Clearly that wouldn’t happen.

I would think that would be intimidating. How can it not be. 340 lbs in the air coming at you. :eek:

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Le'Veon Bell prove that sitting out was always a mistake? CJ will never make back that $20M if he sits out. It's in his best financial interest to play this year.


Not that it matters. I'm 100% certain he'll play for the Chiefs in 2023. and still about 90% certain Veach gets him to re-sign an extension for the next four years as well.


All of this drama is just the nonsense that has to happen before the deal gets done because it's the NFL and everything works out like this now.

Problem is he does not have the cardio or skill set to be a 3 down player EVER. Situational only IMHO.

340? What, did he forget to eat lunch? dude looks like he hasn't seen 350 in a few years. Or his feet for that matter.:D

So they gotta still think a deal could happen right? If they'd decided to just play out the string, I'd think he'd be at camp now?

I've heard, and read, some stuff today that says he has lost 2.4 million already. Each preseason game is roughly 1.1 million. So if he holds out past the Browns preseason game on the 26th, he will be over 5 million, and could go over 6 million before the regular season games begin.

A week ago Veach sounded pretty optimistic that a deal will get done. I trust Veach 100% in whatever he decides to do
