USA Today’s Touchdown Wire lists former Chiefs defensive end Frank Clark as one of the top remaining NFL free agents.

NFL Trade Rumors has Clark slotted as the No. 3 best free agent available to teams.

Could a former Chiefs player be angling to be reunited with Clark? It sure seems like Chris Jones wants Clark to return to GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

“@TheRealFrankC_ Lets finish it..... @Chiefs,” Jones wrote on Twitter.

The Chiefs’ first priority would seem to be working out a long-term deal with Jones, who will be a free agent after the 2023 season.

After that, could the Chiefs try to bring back Clark? He had 23 1/2 sacks in four seasons with the Chiefs, then added 10 1/2 more in 12 playoff games in KC.

Chiefs fans were abuzz at the thought of Clark, 29, coming back to play alongside Jones. Here is a sample of what they were saying.
