WATCH: Chiefs DL Chris Jones divulges his affection for ‘Transformers’ director Michael Bay

Chris Jones is one of the Kansas City Chiefs’ most vibrant characters and has never been shy about expressing himself in press conferences or on the sideline during games.

His larger-than-life personality has made him a fan favorite in Kansas City since the Chiefs drafted him in 2016, and Jones’ joie de vivre was on full display during a mic’d up moment from Super Bowl LVIII that was posted to social media channels this week.

In the clip, Jones can be seen on the bench talking to his teammates about his affection for a famous movie director, though he couldn’t quite remember his name.

Transformers director Michael Bay, it turns out, is one of Jones’ favorite people.

While this revelation may come as a surprise to many fans in Kansas City, Jones’ friendship with Bay was made public last year while the defensive tackle held out from team activities in hopes of securing a new contract.
