Cardinals, OLB Chandler Jones agree to 5-year deal (Yahoo Sports)

The Arizona Cardinals and outside linebacker Chandler Jones have agreed to a five-year contract. The agreement comes after the Cardinals placed the franchise tag on Jones to prevent him from becoming a free agent. The Cardinals acquired Jones in a trade with New England before last season, and general manager Steve Keim had said all along that the team would sign the player to a long-term contract.
