Football Betting Lines

03/09/2010 - Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Kansas City Chiefs announced the signing of free agent running back Thomas Jones on Tuesday.

Terms of the signing were not released.

Jones was released after three productive seasons with the Jets upon the opening of free agency last week. The 31-year-old ran for a career-high 1,402 yards in 2009 and established a franchise record with 14 rushing touchdowns, after setting that mark in 2008 with 13 scores.

The 10-year veteran also set a Jets single-game record with 210 yards on the ground in Week 6 against the Buffalo Bills.

Jones was acquired in 2007 from Chicago after spending three seasons with the Bears. He started his career in Arizona in 2000, but hadn't rushed for over 1,000 yards until he ended up in Chicago. Since 2005, Jones has rushed for 1,000 yards in each season and earned a trip to the Pro Bowl in 2008 after gaining 1,312 yards and scoring 15 total touchdowns.

In 148 career games, Jones has amassed 9,217 yards and 71 rushing touchdowns while adding an additional three scores and 1,858 yards on 289 receptions.

Jones finished his collegiate career at Virginia as the school's all-time leading rusher with 3,998 yards to pair with 40 total TDs.
