The selection to the "NFL Top 100" program was again warranted given his defensive dominance, despite facing consistent double-teams each game.
Chiefs fans are witnessing greatness and longevity from Jones each week, and a reputation that has earned him a ranking of No. 43 on this year's list. The veteran defensive tackle rallied to a strong individual finish last season despite a disappointing year as a team.

— NFL (@NFL) July 30, 2026 During the 2025 season, Jones tallied 29 total tackles, seven sacks, and 32 quarterback pressures. He was named to his seventh consecutive Pro Bowl as one of the few standout presences for the team. The multiple-time first- or second-team All-Pro missed being named to either list for the first time since 2019.
Produced by NFL Films and the X Original Series, the new season of NFL Top 100 features short-form episodes revealing the league's top players as voted on exclusively by current NFL players. Episodes debut on weekdays on X through Friday, September 4, and will air later on NFL+, as well as other NFL-owned-and-operated social media platforms.
