According to NFL insider Adam Schefter, star defensive lineman Chris Jones has officially rejoined the Kansas City Chiefs after a bizarre travel arrangement in Week 10 and is expected to play in the team's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday.
News of Jones' reunification with his teammates came after Kansas City added the former Mississippi State Bulldog to its injury report on Saturday and announced that he would not travel with the Chiefs to Atlanta, but would arrive on his own separate itinerary.
Take a look at Schefter's update on Jones, which was posted to the insider's official Twitter account on November 14:
Chiefs say Chris Jones now has rejoined the team in Atlanta and he is expected to play Sunday vs.
the Falcons.

Kansas City simply characterized Jones' addition to its Week 10 injury report as "personal" and "not injury-related," so it is unclear exactly why it was decided that the All-Pro lineman was better served by making the trip to face the Falcons on his own.
