Chris Jones, the defensive tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs, injured his calf against the Houston Texans four days prior to the Chiefs’ visit to Pittsburgh to play the Steelers. Compared to previous years, Jones, the team’s star pass rusher, has not been as statistically dominant.
Although Jones’ ability to play in that game is doubtful, they won’t have much time to recover and be prepared for their matchup with the Steelers. He might risk missing the game if he is up and moving around on the sidelines, unless the injury is really mild.
This season, he has 35 total tackles and five sacks. The Ravens will need to use players like George Karlaftis off the edge to create pressure in Jones’ absence. Even without his stars like Jones in the past, defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo has been able to apply pressure with ease.
