## Resource

The Chiefs are tightening their cap belt with bold moves: releasing Jaylon Moore and restructuring Mahomes’ deal, which doesn’t hit until next year. This season, Chris Jones carries the biggest cap hit at $44.85M — a hefty load, especially after his All-Pro streak ended. Still, Jones delivered 25 QB hits, 12 TFLs, and 7 sacks, earning his 7th Pro Bowl. Despite facing double teams and some late-season dips, he remains elite — and the Chiefs’ draft haul of defensive talent is designed to support him. Can Jones reclaim his throne and quiet doubters?
