ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting via his Twitter page that the Kansas City Chiefs have signed free agent running back Thomas Jones to a 2 year contract worth $5 million. Jones was released from the New York Jets due to the emergence of rookie running back Shonn Greene. Jones, 32, is coming off his best season totaling 1400 yards and 14 touchdowns.

Good signing. With rising star running back Jamaal Charles, I expect the Chiefs to have one of the best 1-2 combos in the NFL next season.
I'm really surprised at the price we got him at too. Well done Pioli! I'm very excited about this deal....a decent offensive lineman in the draft and a solid tight end and our offense is in business. The defense on the other hand...ugh, we have a lot of work to do.
Jamaal will be just fine....this excites me because I know Jamaal won't have to take a pounding next year.
I'm with the wow, awesome deal for the Chiefs side. No sure what's in it for Jones though. Nothing against KC, just that you guys are building right now.
I think people in KC are more interesting in winning rather than Jamaal Chalels carries or fantasy football value any day
Good signing for the Chiefs. Jones still has a lot left in the tank with the lack of carries he got early in his career.
wow im shocked with how cheap he came. awesome 4 us. im curious as 2 why he would go 4 so low though...
