Expect to see Chris Jones play more DE on first and second down, stay inside on 3rd down (was used like this in AFC Championship two years ago vs Titans).Reed acquisition going to make #Chiefs DL much better, more multiple.
Sources say deal is not done but in the works. This week, Seattle released Reed, who had 6.5 sacks last year, after talks on an extension didn't materialize.

Reed had 7 other teams but Veach waved his massive dong
Jarran Reed has agreed to a 1-year deal with the Chiefs, a source confirms (@JFowlerESPN 1st). Reed, a talented DT who has 19 sacks in the past 3 seasons, can earn up to $7 million.
Reed is the 1st defensive player in free agency to join the Chiefs, who beat out 7 other teams.
