Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes told reporters on Wednesday that he has no hard feelings against Chris Jones, despite the All-Pro defensive tackle’s decision to hold out from training camp because of a bitter contract dispute.
Jones has one year left on the four-year, $80 million deal that he signed in the summer of 2020. In the ’22 campaign, he registered a career-high 15.5 sacks on the way to helping Kansas City win Super Bowl LVII against the Eagles in February.
Despite the current rift between Jones and the franchise, Mahomes, the two-time MVP and Super Bowl champion, is fully supporting his teammate.
