The tag number would be about $32.4 million in 2024, NFL Network&#8217;s James Palmer reported (a 120% increase on his 2023 cap number).<\/p>\n<p>Jones held out all offseason, seeking a new contract that pushed his pay closer to Aaron Donald&#8217;s $31.66 million-per-year average rather than the $24-21 million deals a slew of young DTs signed this offseason. Ultimately, the sides settled on an incentive-laden deal to bridge the gap.<\/p>\n<p>Jones&#8217; absence in the Chiefs Week 1 loss to the Lions was notable. The D played well overall but got pushed around by Detroit&#8217;s O-line late in the defeat. Getting the all-world DT back ahead of Sunday&#8217;s trip to Jacksonville is a big boon as the Chiefs look to avoid going more than one game under .500 for the first time in the Patrick Mahomes era.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/chris-jones-new-one-year-deal-with-chiefs-worth-up-to-25-million-kansas-city-has\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Jones&#8217; reworked one-year contract solution includes roughly $5 million in incentives.
