We're less than a week before the start of the NFL regular season and the Kansas City Chiefs have a problem: Their best defensive player, one of the best in the game, isn't under contract.
Defensive lineman Chris Jones has been holding out. Reports have said he wants $30 million a year. He has hinted he's willing to sit out until Week 8. This is all terrible for the Chiefs, whose defense with Jones is good but not great. Without him, it could get ugly.
There's no question the Chiefs need Jones. He has been underrated for most of his career, but the Chiefs' latest run to a Super Bowl title helped bring Jones' dominance to the forefront. He is one of the best defensive linemen in the game.
