KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Defensive tackle Chris Jones was absent as the Kansas City Chiefs began a three-day minicamp that concludes their offseason practice.

Attendance at the minicamp is mandatory for players under contract according to NFL rules. Jones, according to the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, could be fined as much as $98,753 for missing the camp if he is not otherwise excused.

The Chiefs did not make anyone available to speak to the situation.
