Podcast: What in the world is happening with Chris Jones and the Chiefs?

If it felt as if the Kansas City Chiefs were at a stalemate of sorts with defensive tackle Chris Jones, the series of tweets/events on Tuesday were enough to at least get things moving in one direction or the other. Unfortunately, it felt like things began to spiral out of control.

Jones has now been holding out of training camp and the Chiefs preseason for well over a month now and the fines are racking up. Yet instead of seeing that as a lack of leverage and a reason to report back, Jones has apparently dug in even deeper when it comes to demanding more money from K.C. in the form of a new lucrative contract extension. That's because Jones stated he would be willing to sit out until Week 8 on Twitter on Tuesday.

Whether or not Jones was joking in the moment isn't even important anymore. At this point, Jones has flexed his muscle by saying he has the money to sit this dance out for a lot longer but the Chiefs don't really seem all that inclined to cave in. That could mean some frustrating times ahead for a franchise preparing to defend the title.

Just how bad could things get between the Kansas City Chiefs and DT Chris Jones.

So what should Chiefs fans think of the latest posts from Jones? How much leverage does Jones have? Is there any real way forward here? What in the world is happening with Chris Jones and the Chiefs? Sterling Holmes and Matt Conner discuss the latest developments as well as the latest Chiefs preseason news on this new episode of the Arrowhead Addict podcast.
