Tuesday marks a critical date for all NFL teams, including the Kansas City Chiefs. As of February 20 at 3 p.m. Arrowhead Time, the franchise-tag window opens, meaning clubs around the league can officially designate franchise or transition players. The window remains open for two weeks, until Tuesday, March 5, at 3 p.m. Arrowhead Time.
As mentioned in Monday morning’s edition of Arrowheadlines, while defensive tackle Chris Jones can be franchise-tagged, it is unlikely he will be. ESPN’s Adam Schefter noted that Jones’ projected franchise tag is around $32 million.
