39. Chandler Jones
Jones had a productive six years with the Arizona Cardinals. But a dispute in 2022 resulted in one of the franchise’s most notable contract holdouts. In short, Jones wanted more money but the Cardinals didn’t want to pay him. It’s a story as old as time and it ended with the player departing for pastures new. Arizona felt conscious about their salary cap and didn’t want to blow it on the veteran pass-rusher.

The Cardinals opted to move him on after signing J.J. Watt and DeAndre Hopkins to big contracts. Las Vegas picked up Jones on a three-year deal worth $51 million. It was a massive amount of money and it’s clear why Arizona didn’t want to commit. But Jones got his way in the end and moved to a new city. He didn’t complain about leaving Phoenix for the city of sin (via Bleacher Report).
