I think this has two possible outcomes:
1. Jones gets a new deal.
2. Jones plays out this year and the Chiefs let him walk, knowing they got something like 85% of his peak performance years.
I don't think they're going to tag him. That's just not the kind of team the Chiefs want to be with a veteran like Jones. He'll already be pissed about having to play out this year w/o a deal. They won't want to turn it into a super ugly situation that demotivates the rest of the players on the team. IE - pull a Carl Peterson.
As far as trade, with the deal he'll want I don't think teams will offer enough to make it worth it. I think they'll let him go like they did with Brown.
I think he misses the brutal part of camp and then signs. Who wants to be in camp right now anyway?
