Chiefs DT Chris Jones holds youth football camp at BVSW
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (KCTV) - Hundreds of Kansas City kids got the chance to take the field with a Super Bowl champion Wednesday afternoon.
Girls and boys ages six to 16 laced up their shoes at Blue Valley Southwest for a one-day football camp hosted by Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones.
“That’s what it’s all about, man, the kids,” Jones said. “I think it’s very important to pour into the youth. I think it’s important that you engage with the community. Being able to interact with the youth, and have a lot of fun while you’re doing it.”

Jones and the rest of the Chiefs kick off training camp in St. Joseph late next month.
In the meantime, No. 95 is staying busy during his time off.
“Kids, train, more kids, train, camp, train a little more,” Jones said of his off-season plans. “I’m gonna take a vacation probably a week before I have to report, and try to get my mind right to be able to do this three-peat.”
Jones will host one more camp on Friday, June 28, in Springfield, Mo.
