Jones (triceps) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. Jones' injury is of the season-ending variety, according to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site. His absence will be a blow to Arizona's defensive front, and lead to extra opportunities for Dante Stills and Victor Dimukeje moving forward.
Jones exited Sunday's game against the Lions with a triceps injury and will not return. Prior to leaving, Jones recorded one tackles (one solo) and entered Week 3 with three tackles (two solo) and one fumble recovery. His absence opens more playing time for Dante Stills up front for Arizona.
Jones is slated to sign a three-year, $30.1 million deal with the Cardinals on Wednesday, Peter Schrager of NFL Network reports. The contract will include $19.75 million in guaranteed money, per Schrager. Jones recorded career highs in solo tackles (29), sacks (4.5) and passes defensed (four) in 2023 with the Bears. The sixth-year pro also played more than 700 defensive snaps for the second straight season.
