Chris Jones’ holdout continues one day before the Kansas City Chiefs open the season against the Detroit Lions. Still, the star defensive tackle joined teammates at a charity event Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Part of the Chiefs’ annual “Red Wednesday,” Jones was at the Ronald McDonald House in Kansas City,\u00a0helping deliver burgers to families.<\/p>\n

The star DT, who has held out all offseason in search of a contract extension,\u00a0spoke to the media\u00a0about his current situation on the eve of Kickoff 2023.<\/p>\n

“I can’t really talk about it,” he said. “Hopefully, it gets worked out. It’s always been my goal to be a Kansas City Chief for life. I’ve said that multiple times on social media platforms, from interviews, and they know where my position is at. Hopefully we can get something worked out for the long term.”<\/p>\n

Jones said he “can be out there tomorrow” if the contract situation gets worked out in time.<\/p>\n
