We're splitting hairs on what we consider a contender.

Without Jones, the defense likely looks more like the 2018 Chiefs and has a hard time getting stops. Sure.

But the offense is still going to be a dynamic blowtorch, and if healthy in the playoffs could be good enough to just overcome the D.

COULD.

But I don't see a way this ends other than one of the following:

1) New deal for Jones, he plays in 23
2) No new deal for Jones, he plays in 23 on the current deal with the understanding they'll revisit, and tag and trade him as needed in the offseason.
