The Bears placed Jones (shoulder) on injured reserve Thursday, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports. Jones was injured in last Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Cardinals and will now miss a minimum of four games. The 27-year-old defensive back has appeared in eight games this season, seeing 76 snaps on defense and another 140 on special teams. Jones has 15 tackles (13 solo) and two pass breakups.
Jones (shoulder) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday's contest with the Cardinals. Jones is officially done for the night after suffering a shoulder injury against Arizona. He'll now shift his focus to being ready to go for the team's Week 10 matchup with the Patriots.
Jones (shoulder) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest with the Cardinals, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports. Jones is likely done for the night after suffering a shoulder injury in the second half against Arizona. With Terell Smith (ankle) also ruled out, the Bears are rather thin in the secondary.
Jones tallied 10 stops in the Bears' 35-16 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. Jones took over a starting role with Tyrique Stevenson (calf) missing this game due to injury. When Stevenson returns, Jones will return to a depth role. Coming into this game, Jones had a total of four tackles over five games.
Jones is expected to start at cornerback in Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports. Jones will pick up his first start since the 2022 season as he steps in as a replacement at one of the boundary corner spots for Tyrique Stevenson (calf), who is inactive. Over his five appearances on the season, Jones has tallied four tackles and two pass breakups across 104 total snaps (10 on defense, 94 on special teams).
