Chris Jones looking for $20M per year 'or I won't play'


Chris!! Baby!...Your good...occasionally..Couldn't do much against san frans linemen...

seem to always have an ailment that keeps you from going 100%...You go hard the

next season and maybe the chiefs can pony up a little more...


Standout defensive lineman Chris Jones and his Super Bowl-champion Chiefs have until July 15 to work out a long-term deal.

However, if Jones, who the team applied the franchise tag to in March, doesn't get the deal he's desiring, it might be well past mid-July until Kansas City sees the uber-talented DL again.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported Tuesday on NFL Total Access that Jones has "always viewed himself as a $20 million-plus" per-year player, but that the Chiefs have never seen him in such a light and have never offered him that substantial an amount. Hence, Garafolo added there is "a lot of work to be done," if a long-term pact is to be had and Garafolo's not confident it will happen.

Jones, a 2019 Pro Bowler, replied via Twitter to a reply to a video of Garafolo's report that a holdout might be in store.

"Or I won't play. Le'Veon Bell told me about this," Jones' tweet read.

My bag of fucks is already dangerously low....for spoiled fucking athletes making more in a year than I will in a career spent in science and healthcare development? Nah...fuck off Chris, the fucks bag has a deficit for people like you these days...

I hope you enjoy thee time not getting paid and just having to live off of the other millions you already have.

These motherfuckers are going to one day learn that entertainment and the enormous dollars it sucks up are NOT essential to life and NOT worth a fraction of what they receive for it.
