Chandler Jones missed the majority of the 2020 season due to injuries. Moreover, Jones is in the last year of his contract before he becomes a free agent. If a player ever wanted a reason to prove himself, this can be as easy as it gets. With no signs of Arizona Cardinals extending Jones’ contract, Chandler had to step and so did he.

Chandler Jones had missed 11 matches in the previous injuries. In the previous season, he had recorded an impressive 19 sacks. On his first match after the injury, Jones didn’t waste much time to get back to his dominating best as he troubled Tennessee Titans quarterbacks all night long.

Chandler Jones records a career-best 5 sacks against Tennessee Titans

Cardinals’ Jones, who returned after missing the last 11 games of 2020 with a biceps injury had a blistering first quarter, to say the least. Jones dominated Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill with incessant pressure helping him dictate the tempo of the match.
