Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones turns 30 on July 3 and has seven years of NFL experience under his belt. So, it’s safe to say he has put a lot of football mileage on his body.
That’s why Jones has asked Chiefs head coach Andy Reid for some rest days during training camp this summer.
“Listen man, I’ve already been talking to Andy about, ‘Let me skip out on training camp. I’m a little older, right?’” Jones said on June 26 at his youth football camp at Blue Valley Southwest High School in Overland Park via The Kansas City Star. “I can feel it. I can feel when we have a day on training camp. Give me like two days off and one day on then, and we maybe can work something out, you know?”
