Chris Jones entered a sweet situation in the NFL in 2016, as he was drafted by a team on the rise (Kansas City) who could use a pass rusher.
The former Mississippi State star started more games than not in his first two seasons, and would be named an All-Rookie. Jones was a permanent starter for the Chiefs in his third year, accumulating 15.5 Sacks, 19 Tackles for Loss and 29 Quarterback Hits, which netted him a Second Team All-Pro nod. Following that, Jones was consistently double-teamed, but remained Kansas City’s top pass-rusher.
From 2019 to 2023, Jones has been a perennial Pro Bowl Selection, and is also on a two-year streak of First Team All-Pros. The Chiefs won the last two Super Bowls, and while the offense gets most of the credit, these accolades do not happen with Jones leading the defence. This is a very special player.
