Jones, who led the Chiefs&#8217; defensive line with 48 plays, watched the sequence from the center of the field and did not make a significant effort to chase and tackle Lawrence.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cIt&#8217;s a teaching point for me, a little bit of adversity. I can&#8217;t think the play is over. It&#8217;s a learning lesson. I thought it was over. I thought we had him down, so I stopped and was about to celebrate. Then I realized he wasn&#8217;t down.\u201d<\/p><cite>Chris Jones<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nJones assured that he will improve in the future and that such an incident &#8220;will not happen again&#8221;.\n\nHe also clarified that he deactivated his X and Instagram accounts before Monday&#8217;s match, contrary to what many fans thought after the defeat.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI posted a Drake quote, \u2018I\u2019ll see you in the summer of 2026\u2019,\u201d Jones said. \u201cI never run from constructive criticism. I\u2019ve never been that guy. I\u2019ve always addressed it head-on, really. There\u2019s a lot you can take from criticism. It\u2019s like fuel, like gasoline, for me personally.\u201d<\/p><cite>Chris Jones<\/cite>\n\nJones explained that the deactivation of his social media occurred days before the meeting.\n\nThe Chiefs&#8217; next challenge is another prime-time matchup, this time on Sunday night against the Detroit Lions. Jones is aware that he will need an elite performance for the Chiefs&#8217; defense to stop the NFL&#8217;s highest-scoring offense, led by quarterback Jared Goff and running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI&#8217;ve been focused on the Lions since the [Monday] game,\u201d Jones said. \u201cYou can&#8217;t hang your head about one play or one game. You learn from it, take notes, and move on.\u201d<\/p><cite>Chris Jones<\/cite><\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KANSAS CITY, Mo. &#8211; After the most embarrassing moment of the season, Chiefs player Chris Jones addressed the situation in which he didn&#8217;t give maximum effort during the Jaguars&#8217; winning touchdown.
