I’m sure Chiefs fans forgave Chris Jones awful quick after that whole situation. And most of ours will too with these guys.
I'm not upset with Chase. I'm upset with the Bengals. He is a totally rare receiver and integral to our being successful. I'm not saying he's making it easy, but you just make it happen.
You're not going to find receivers like Chase easily. He's a top five guy. I know you have to manage your cap and you want as much money in escrow as possible.
But you win with pro bowl players. And he will need at least two weeks to get in football shape and he has missed really important reps.
I don't know anything specific, but my guess is they are stuck on guaranteed money or the length of the contract or both. Pick one and give it to him, pay him and get him the dickens into camp.
The idea that one is going to out last the other is stupid thinking. By now it's clear what he wants. Stop dicking around and get it done. They might have already had Bates, Tee and Chase signed and ready to go.
Chase you have to have. And it appears that he wants to sign. Sign him at cheaper dollars and get him up and running.
