INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Chris Jones got what he needed, picking up a sack in the third quarter of the Kansas City Chiefs’ 13-12 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday to collect a $1.25 million bonus. An exuberant Jones ran to the sideline and was swarmed by his teammates after dropping Easton Stick for an 11-yard loss. Jones came into the game with 9 1/2 sacks this season. He needed 10 for the bonus and finished with 10 1/2. Jones had clearly been going after his money, generating 12 pressures on 31 pass rush snaps, according to NFL Next Gen Stats.
