Jones is doing what he feels he needs to do to get paid correctly in a league throws away players like garbage when it's through with them.
Travis just got extended for $57M
Bad look and bad for team chemistry

Jones hasn't accomplished much since Jimmy Johnson left, and I don't count that third Super Bowl under barry switzer, switzer was just there to keep Jimmy's team running smoothly, once that era passed Jones hasn't been able to do regain that type of prominence...not even with bill parcells as HC...
Henson had the 1 start and played in 7 games total that season.

It sure is a good sign.

All the Chief's need now is for Kelce's 34 year old bad back to start flaring up.

He’s the Ziggy Stardust of football, eventually the band had to kill him.
Jerry’s is also an egomaniac …. Maybe he has some AJ in him but its not exactly the same“Less is more? NO NO NO - MORE is MORE!”

I think AJ was different - he drank his own koolaid somwhere around 2006 or 2007 and really believed he was smarter than everyone else in football. Not just smarter than Marty but smarter than everyone. He went from “line em up 3 deep and compete” to “i don’t think any rookies can make our roster”. He shifted picks from restocking with solid players to his whims and hunches on his elusive one missing piece and ignored data as just not as smart as him. Exhibit 1: Jacob Fucking Hester

Jerruh was also trying to force him to start QB Drew Henson and Parcells said he wasnt ready and went public with that scenario. When Henson played like shit, Parcells went with the ol...."told you so" lol.
Henson had the 1 start and played in 7 games total that season.
