Chris Jones: ‘I feel really good’ after resting my calf

Star defensive lineman Chris Jones suffered a calf injury late in the regular season, missing the Christmas Day game against the Steelers before Kansas City rested in Week 18.

But after the wild-card bye, Jones was listed as a full participant in practice on the Chiefs’ injury report on Tuesday.

“I feel really good,” Jones said in his press conference on Wednesday. “I was able to take three weeks off and get my legs back under me. It’s been a long season. And fortunately we were able to finish the first round after the Pittsburgh game and I was able to talk for another week. So, I got two to three weeks of bye.”

“I feel really good, I feel motivated, ready to play some football.”

Jones, 30, recorded 5.0 sacks with nine tackles for loss and 20 quarterback hits in 15 regular-season games this year.
