Summary

The tone around Chiefs d-lineman Chris Jones' camp holdout is changing.  The superstar sacker wants a new contract but still has a year left on his current deal.  Andy Reid made it sound like the discussions were productive but now it sounds like they've broken off.  We discuss the Chiefs options.    There was a bunch of camp news this weekend around the league with one team fighting, one team battling the hype train and one team getting unexpectedly good quarterback news.  Oh, and Washington is changing their name again and they are now considering the name I picked years ago.    Elon Musk has changed the name of Twitter, Inc. to X Corp.  There was a wild boat crash at the Lake of the Ozarks Saturday night, Don Jr says he's been blacklisted by Fox News and we have the exact day and time of Cocaine Sharks this Shark Week.

Window World, the official Windows of the Kansas City Chiefs, presents Kevin Keatsman has issues online at Windowscansacetcy.com.

We will stop short of saying there's trouble in paradise, but there is drama building at Chiefs Camp in St. Joseph, Missouri, as all-world defensive lineman Chris Jones is

0:23.1

holding out at $50,000 a day, under contract, his second contract, a lucrative deal, looking for

0:30.5

another contract, even more money. We can have the discussion in the debate of whether or not

0:36.4

Chris Jones is worth more money,

0:37.8

whether or not the Chiefs should pony up. It becomes a very difficult proposition for the Chiefs

0:42.2

to pay all their star players. Travis Kelsey has been very open this offseason talking about how

0:47.1

little money he makes here in Kansas City compared to what he probably could make. If he let his

0:53.0

contract expire, became a free agent, or played hardball with the Chiefs. The reality of this is quite simple.

0:59.6

When you pay your quarterback what the Chiefs are paying their quarterback, and there's no

1:04.2

insight to that happening. This is going to go on for another decade. When you do that,

1:08.9

there's really not enough money to pay other superstar players what they

1:13.7

are worth to other teams. So that's where Chris Jones falls in on this thing. The Chiefs don't

1:19.5

have a lot of great options here. The drama that's building is the tone of all this has changed.

1:25.2

Andy Reid, prior to training camp, said, oh, there's open dialogue,

1:28.7

there's good discussion. We're talking to his people. Now he talks in past tense. Like,

1:33.4

well, we had some dialogue going, and it sounds like not much is going on on the Chris Jones front

1:38.5

right now. Whether or not he winds up having to pay his $50,000 for every day that he's missing of camp

1:44.8

is above my pay grade. These things can sometimes get swept under the rug or hidden when

1:50.1

it's all over. But Andy Reid sounds a little bit surprised that Chris Jones is not at camp.

1:54.6

I think they thought after a few days he'll be coming in. He's under contract. And there's no

real need for him to be there now.
