The Kansas City Chiefs are unlikely to use their franchise tag on defensive tackle Chris Jones due to their salary cap situation. The Chiefs' projected cap space for the 2024 season is expected to prevent them from tagging Jones, even though their revised agreement with him did not include a provision against it. Jones is set to make his season debut against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and while he could become an unrestricted free agent in 2024, a return to Kansas City should not be ruled out as he reportedly wants to stay with the team.
