because he said he wanted to be a Chief and play for no other franchise... He can be the 2nd highest paid DT all time and make $2-$3 million more than the 3rd highest paying guy, but he is now asking for $31m. If he was demanding that before the draft, most would have been on board with that decision, however, it may not yield what many think. You may get a 2nd and a later pick, but your not getting the Tyreek haul. We have control for 2 more years, but next year would be tough without restructuring with the large cap # under the franchise tag. This puts all the pressure on Jones to get a deal done. He loses over $1 mil if he doesn't report this week for missing Sunday's game.
