Chris Jones is effectively required to show up to training camp in early August and play a full season with the Chiefs.
Unless the two sides work for a compromise that at the moment does not seem likely, he will have his choice between taking a guarantee of slightly more than the (non-guaranteed) approximately $42 million he’d get over the next three years through the last year of his rookie contract and two franchise tags, or the Chiefs can give him (basically) the Frank Clark contract.
This isn’t answering your question, but I feel like I need to say it anyway: you will not find anyone who believes players should get their money more than I do.
