Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle, Chris Jones, is set to chase his third Super Bowl ring in Las Vegas in a couple of weeks. Jones, known for making bold bets on himself this season, took a risk by holding out during the offseason and missing training camp and the regular season in hopes of landing a lucrative contract extension. Unfortunately, his gamble didn't pay off initially, as he had to settle for a reworked one-year deal that was not as favorable as the original contract.
However, Jones didn't let this setback dampen his spirits. The new deal included several provisions or 'gambles' that he could cash in on. Along with a base value of $19.5 million, Jones could earn an additional $1 million for playing 35% of snaps, another $1 million for hitting 50%, and $1.25 million for reaching 10 sacks. He celebrated achieving the last milestone in the regular-season finale against the Chargers with a wild sideline celebration with his teammates.
