Head coach Antonio Pierce told reporters that Jones (back) won't practice Wednesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports. Jones likely picked up a back injury in the Raiders' Week 11 loss to the Dolphins, despite playing 55 defensive snaps and recording seven total tackles. The Arizona State product likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bronocs.

Head coach Antonio Pierce told reporters that Jones (back) won't practice Wednesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports. Jones likely picked up a back injury in the Raiders' Week 11 loss to the Dolphins, despite playing 55 defensive snaps and recording seven total tackles. The Arizona State product likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bronocs.
Jones (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Jones suffered a back injury in the second half of Sunday's game . Fellow starting corner Jakorian Bennett (shoulder) has already been ruled out for the rest of the contest, meaning Decamerion Richardson and Darnay Holmes will be the Raiders' corners if Jones cannot return.
Jones finished Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Bengals with four solo tackles, two pass breakups and an interception that he returned 29 yards for a touchdown. Jones logged his first interception of the regular season Sunday. He perfectly read a screen pass from Joe Burrow intended for Ja'Marr Chase early in the fourth quarter, which Jones returned for a 29-yard pick-six. Through the first nine games of the 2024 regular season, Jones has logged 34 tackles (26 solo), eight pass breakups and one pick six.
Jones (illness) was a full participant in practice Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports. An illness kept Jones off the practice field Wednesday, but he was able to ramp up his activity over the following two days and he'll be good to go for Sunday's contest. The 2022 fourth-round pick has logged 23 tackles (17 solo) and five pass breakups through the first six games of the regular season.
Jones (illness) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice session. Jones didn't practice Wednesday due to an illness, but he was able to return to practice Thursday and is trending in the right direction to play against the Rams on Sunday. Jones has accumulated 23 tackles (17 solo) and five pass breakups in six regular-season games, five of which he's played 50-plus defensive snaps.
Jones (illness) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. It's unclear when Jones began feeling under the weather, but the Raiders' next two injury reports should provide clarity on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams. The 2022 second-round pick has registered 23 tackles (17 solo) and five pass breakups through the first six games of the regular season.
Jones played just nine defensive snaps in the Patriots' loss against the Colts on Sunday, apparently losing his coaches' trust in favor of 2021 fifth-rounder Shaun Wade. He's shown flashes of stickiness in coverage when he's been able to stay on the field, so it would be surprising not to see him scooped up relatively soon after leaving New England.
