The Chris Jones contract saga has taken over most Chiefs offseason banter. The two-time Super Bowl champion defensive tackle is said to want close to $30 million dollars in a contract extension while the Chiefs appear to be unwilling to go that high. Jones has set out the entire offseason training program but GM Brett Veach did provide a positive update on Wednesday.

Veach said to reporters on Wednesday that the last two days there has been more communication and that โ€œhopefullyโ€ heโ€™s in the lineup against the Lions next Thursday and โ€œready to go.โ€ This report is a breath of fresh air following Andy Reidโ€™s comments last week where he basically said there had been no communication with Jones.
