3 pending free agents to watch in Chiefs-Titans playoffs game

The AFC Championship Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Tennessee Titans is Sunday afternoon. On both teams, there are pending free agents the Arizona Cardinals could have interest in this offseason.

Check them out.

Chiefs DT Chris Jones

Jones is going to be one of the big-ticket free agents. The Cardinals need to upgrade the defensive line and Jones would be a huge upgrade. He had nine sacks this season and 15.5 in 2018 from the defensive interior.

The Cardinals could have drafted him in 2016 but took Robert Nkemdiche instead.

He is questionable for the game today with a calf injury.

Titans OL Jack Conklin

Conklin will be one of the hottest names on the free agent market among offensive linemen. He will get a huge contract. The Cardinals could target him to secure the right tackle position, which is the one position on the offensive line that has the most questions.

However, can the Cardinals afford to pay Conklin and re-sign D.J. Humphries?

Titans LB Kamalei Correa

Correa had five sacks in 2019, all coming in the second half of the season when he became a starter. The Cardinals could be targeting an outside linebacker to rush the passer opposite Chandler Jones, so Correa could make sense.
