The Chiefs have ended their search at tailback.

We think.

After kicking tires on Thomas Jones and Justin Fargas and lining up a visit with Willie Parker, the Chiefs have agreed to terms with Jones, according to a league source.

Jones signed a two-year deal; he’ll get $3 million in 2010 and $2 million in 2011. He also is eligible to earn $500,000 in incentives.

With the Jets in 2009, Jones rushed for a career-high 1,402 yards and 14 touchdowns. The Jets cut him to avoid a $2.8 million roster bonus. They had hoped to try to re-sign him.
