Jones recorded 115 total tackles (79 solo), 10 passes defended, including three interceptions, and forced one fumble across 16 regular-season games in 2024. Jones was the Broncos' top tackler in his first season in Denver, tallying a career-high 115 stops. He started in 15 of his 16 appearances and ranked second on Denver's defense in passes defended and interceptions, trailing only First-Team All-Pro Patrick Surtain. The 26-year-old has two seasons remaining on the three-year, $20 million deal signed with the Broncos last offseason, so he's expected to remain in Denver in 2025. Jones is likely to continue as one of the Broncos' top defensive playmakers next season.

Jones recorded 115 total tackles (79 solo), 10 passes defended, including three interceptions, and forced one fumble across 16 regular-season games in 2024. Jones was the Broncos' top tackler in his first season in Denver, tallying a career-high 115 stops. He started in 15 of his 16 appearances and ranked second on Denver's defense in passes defended and interceptions, trailing only First-Team All-Pro Patrick Surtain. The 26-year-old has two seasons remaining on the three-year, $20 million deal signed with the Broncos last offseason, so he's expected to remain in Denver in 2025. Jones is likely to continue as one of the Broncos' top defensive playmakers next season.
Jones tallied 13 tackles (nine solo) during the Broncos' 30-24 overtime loss to the Bengals on Saturday. Jones played a season-high 78 snaps on defense Saturday, and he finished as the Broncos' second-leading tackler behind cornerback Riley Moss (14). Jones signed a three-year, $20 million contract with the Broncos in March to serve as the starting strong safety due to the departure of All-Pro veteran Justin Simmons. Through 16 regular-season games, Jones has tallied career highs across most defensive statistical categories and is up to 114 tackles (79 solo), 10 pass defenses (including three interceptions), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Jones registered 10 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defense during the Broncos' 34-27 loss to the Chargers this past Thursday. Jones has registered 19 combined tackles in the two games since the Broncos' Week 14 bye. He's now up to 101 tackles through 14 regular-season games, and it's the first time he has eclipsed the century mark in his five-year NFL career. Jones leads the Broncos in combined tackles and will look to add to his total in a pivotal Week 17 bout against the Bengals on Saturday, Dec. 28.
Jones recorded nine tackles (eight solo) and three pass breakups, including one interception, in the Broncos' win over the Colts on Sunday. Jones played 93 percent of the defensive snaps against Indianapolis, and his three pass breakups marked a new season best. His second-quarter interception on an Anthony Richardson deep shot to Alec Pierce was Jones' third pick of the year. On the season, Jones has a career high 91 tackles (63 solo) and nine pass breakups, including the three interceptions.
Jones (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. The Texas product likely picked up a groin injury in the Broncos' Week 14 win over the Browns, but he practiced in full Friday, suggesting that he's recovered from the issue. Jones is tied with Cody Barton for the Broncos' leading-tackler with 82 on the season, and he's expected to continue making plays when the Colts come to Denver in Week 15.
Jones (groin) is questionable to return to Monday night's contest against the Browns, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. Jones appears to have picked up a groin injury against Cleveland, exiting the contest with three total tackles (one solo) on the day. In his absence, JL Skinner and Devon Key stand to see an increase in workload at safety.
Jones finished with five solo tackles and two pass breakups, including an interception, in Sunday's 29-19 win over the Raiders. The safety put in a strong performance in his first game back after missing Week 11 with an abdominal injury. Jones has played on at least 67 percent of the defensive snaps in all 11 of his games this season. The former Dolphin has 79 tackles (54 solo), five pass breakups, including two interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 2024.
Jones (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders. The starting safety missed Denver's Week 11 win over Atlanta with an abdominal injury, practiced in full Thursday and then popped up on the injury report with an illness Saturday, but he appears good to go for Sunday. Jones has played more than 80 percent of the defensive snaps in each of his past nine games and has logged 74 tackles (49 solo), three pass breakups, including an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery on the year.
Jones (illness) is questionable to play against the Raiders on Sunday, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports. Jones was sidelined for the Broncos' Week 11 win over the Falcons due to an abdominal injury. He appeared to be past the issue when he logged a full practice Thursday, but Jones is now under the weather and is in jeopardy of being inactive for Week 12. Devon Key would be poised to start for a second straight game if Jones is inactive for Sunday's contest.
