BREAKING News: Chris Jones Makes Controversial Statement After Leaving Chiefs – ‘They Don’t Value Me Here, I’m Gonna…’
In a shocking turn of events, Kansas City Chiefs defensive star Chris Jones has made a controversial statement following his departure from the team. Jones, who has been with the Chiefs since 2016 and played a key role in their three Super Bowl victories, expressed frustration over how he has been treated in recent times.
In a recent interview, Jones stated, “They don’t value me here. I’m going to find a place where my talent is truly appreciated.” This statement comes after he and the team failed to reach an agreement on a new contract, leading to his decision to leave Kansas City.
Earlier, in March 2025, the Chiefs restructured Jones’ contract along with Patrick Mahomes’ to free up nearly $50 million in salary cap space. This move was intended to create financial flexibility for the team to sign other free agents.
However, the relationship between Jones and the team had already become strained after he missed the opening game of the 2024 season due to a contract dispute. Although he later signed a one-year deal, tensions remained.
Adding to his struggles, Jones recently went through a personal crisis, splitting from his longtime girlfriend Sheawna Weathersby after nine years together. Weathersby accused Jones of infidelity, further increasing pressure on the star defender.
As of now, Chris Jones’ future remains uncertain. Several teams may be interested in signing a top-tier defensive player like him. Fans are eagerly waiting to see which team he will join and whether he can maintain his elite performance.
