I think it's likely that Jones wants Frank Clark money for one good year. The Chiefs were hoping to give him less to get him his money earlier and he isn't seeing it that way.
His options are:
1) Not play, lose the year he's in the same spot next season.
2) Not play till week 10, become RFA hope he played well enough in that 6 weeks to get a big contract that the Chiefs have the option to match or get draft compensation.
3) Take less get guaranteed money and play.
4) Show up and play this season become an UFA and sign somewhere else or get tagged.
The Chiefs have the leverage here, if he plays hardball I think he loses.
