Chiefs DE Chris Jones ties record with sack in 10th straight game

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones tied an NFL record by recording a sack in his 10th consecutive game Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium.

Jones brought down Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers in the second quarter of Kansas City's 29-28 loss to Los Angeles to tie the mark, also held by Dallas' DeMarcus Ware in 2007-08 and Denver's Simon Fletcher in 1992-93.

Jones already holds the NFL's single-season record for consecutive games with a sack, having moved atop the list Sunday against Baltimore with his ninth straight game with a sack.

He picked up his second sack of the game on the Chargers' next drive and also was credited with half a sack while helping Justin Houston take down Rivers late in the quarter, bringing his season total to 14.
