Chandler Jones is in line to sign what could be the last huge contract of his NFL career, but money may not be the top priority for the star pass-rusher.
Numerous teams are expected to explore the possibility of signing Jones. Jordan Schultz reports that the Seattle Seahawks, Denver Broncos, Miami Dolphins and Atlanta Falcons are among them. Jones will almost certainly be among the highest-paid defensive players in the NFL when he signs, but he wants to play for a contender.
I’m told the #Bills and #Eagles are also interested in Chandler Jones, who continues to be one of the premier pass rushers in the league.

Jones, 32, recorded 10.5 sacks and six forced fumbles this past season. He bounced back in a big way after missing most of 2020 with a biceps injury. He has been one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL for years. One general manager told Schultz that Jones is viewed as being in “great shape” and will have no problem landing a long-term deal.
Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill recently indicated that the team wants Jones back, but only at the right price. Jones had a cryptic response on social media.
