A moment he will never be allowed to live down.

Chris Jones had one of the more memorable Combine experiences ever, but it’s not one he’d like to remember.

Jones, a second-round pick out of Mississippi State by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016, nearly had his career ruined by an escaped member while running the 40-yard dash.

A video of Jones’ mishap has gone viral amid the latest iteration of the Combine, thanks to his recollection of the unfortunate incident during the ‘New Heights’ podcast Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce runs with his brother Jason.

The brothers reposted the video this week.

“Chris Jones is still the only player in NFL history to get a sack at the combine😂,” they joked.

Chris Jones Wanted To Be “Different”

The clip below shows the three of them laughing about the viral episode.

“You had one of the most electric combine moments that’s ever gone on national television,” Travis said.

Jones explained…

“I was so big on being different from everyone – everybody was wearing the f***ing long tights and I was like, ‘You know what, I’m not going out there and copying everybody. I’m going to wear the short tights.’

“I didn’t realise they was boxers, bro! Honest to God!”

Jones said he had to dive on the grenade in an attempt to hide the malfunction.

“You tripped over that third leg,” Jason quipped, eliciting fits of laughter.

“All of a sudden I felt it touch my leg and I’m like, ‘Oh s**t’,” Jones recalled.

Jason then suggested that Jones was “blessed” to have his manhood fall out.

“I don’t think mine could ‘fall’ anywhere,” he said.

The two fans he befriended on the beach may disagree…

Jones has since gone on to win three Super Bowls, six All-Pro selections and seven Pro Bowl call-ups. He also holds the NFL record for the most consecutive games with a sack (11).

Not bad for a guy who had to dive on his package at the Combine.
