The Kansas City Chiefs restructured the contract of defensive tackle Chris Jones on Wednesday, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. In addition to Jones, the Chiefs also restructured quarterback Patrick Mahomes' contract to free up $49.446 million in salary cap space for this year. In recent weeks, the Chiefs placed the franchise tag on offensive guard Trey Smith and re-signed linebacker Nick Bolton and wide receiver Marquise Brown. This week in free agency, KC added offensive tackle Jaylon Moore...

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (knee) injured his right knee in the 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday and never returned after getting a doubtful tag. Jones' injury didn't look too serious, but with the game essentially already over in the second half at the time of his injury, the Chiefs didn't feel it was necessary to risk further damage by bringing him back. Before hurting his knee, the 30-year-old pass-rusher was seen getting his neck worked ...

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) practiced in full all week and was removed from the final injury report on Thursday. Jones will be active when the Chiefs take on the visiting Houston Texans in the Divisional Round of the postseason on Saturday. A calf injury kept the 30-year-old veteran All-Pro from playing in the final two regular-season games, but after three weeks of rest -- the Chiefs had a bye in the wild-card round of the playoffs -- he's ready to return to action as...

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) was able to get through a full practice session on Tuesday. The star pass rusher is trending in the right direction after missing the final two games of the regular season due to a calf injury. Despite that, Jones still finished with 37 tackles, five sacks, and one fumble forced in 15 games. The six-time All-Pro pass rusher was likely just out as a precaution and should be 100 percent ready for Saturday's playoff matchup against the Houston ...

Per Matt McMullen of the team, Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones (calf) returned to practice on Friday. The 30-year-old picked up a calf injury in Kansas City's Week 16 win over the Houston Texans that would force him to miss the ensuing two contests. It's excellent news for the Chiefs, as Jones was listed as a non-participant for the entire lead-up to their loss to the Broncos last weekend. However, the extra week of rest has been a boon for him, as he's taken a positive step ...

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (coach's decision) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Denver Broncos. He had been listed as doubtful, so his absence this weekend was widely expected. After all, the Chiefs' plan to rest many key starters has been well-documented. Jones finishes the regular season with 37 tackles, five sacks, and one forced fumble through 15 contests. A combination of Marlon Tuipulotu and Derrick Nnadi will replace Jones on the ...

The Kansas City Chiefs will be resting most of their key players on both sides of the ball for the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday in Denver against the division-rival Broncos. The Chiefs have listed defensive lineman Chris Jones (calf), cornerback Trent McDuffie (knee), linebacker Nick Bolton, defensive end George Karlaftis, safety Justin Reid and linebacker Drue Tranquill all as doubtful to play this weekend. Cornerback Jaylen Watson (ankle) has been ruled out. Jones missed the team's ...

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) is listed as questionable for the team's Week 17 game on Wednesday on Christmas Day versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jones didn't practice on Sunday or Monday after straining his calf in Saturday's win over the Houston Texans in Week 16. On a short week, the 30-year-old defensive stalwart might not be able to go, so fantasy managers in IDP formats need to have a backup on hand in case the Chiefs rule him out on Christmas morning. Jones being ...

According to Jay Glazer of Fox Sports, Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) has a Grade 1 calf strain, a recent MRI revealed. As expected, the 30-year-old has had a quality season, totaling 37 tackles, five sacks, and one forced fumble. He exited Saturday's win over the Houston Texans. However, while the recent update is encouraging, Jones is far from a lock to be available on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. If he's not out there, the Chiefs would be down one of ...

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (shoulder) is reportedly likely to suit up for the Week 1 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The star pass rusher was able to return to practice last week. He was also on the field on Sunday, which is good news heading into Thursday's opener. Jones suffered a shoulder injury in early August and missed all of the preseason as a result. However, the five-time Pro Bowler shouldn't need too much time to get ready. Over the last two seasons, Jones ...
