Jones recorded nine total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams. Jones played 84 percent of the Patriots' defensive snaps Sunday and led the team in total tackles. The Houston product has now appeared in 11 games this season, recording 43 total tackles and five passes defended, including one interception. He's expected to continue starting alongside Jonathan Jones and Christian Gonzalez in the Patriots' secondary ahead of the Week 12 matchup in Miami.
Jones recorded six tackles (five solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 25-22 win versus the Jets. Jones was on the field for all of New England's defensive snaps for the first time this year in Week 8, and he tied his season-high tackle total as a result. The way reps are split between him and Jonathan Jones will warrant keeping an eye on as the campaign continues.
Jones (groin/illness) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports. Jones went from logging a DNP on Wednesday to a full practice session Friday, suggesting that he's moved past his groin issue and illness in time for Sunday's game in London. Expect the third-year pro to serve as New England's top slot corner and punt returner in Week 7.
Jones (groin/illness) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. Jones grabbed his first interception of the regular season during the Patriots' Week 6 loss to the Texans, but the 2022 third-round pick appears to have picked up a groin injury in the process. He's also dealing with an illness, and Jones could miss the flight to London for Week 7 against the Jaguars if he's unable to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days. Jones has accrued 22 tackles (17 solo) and one interception through the first six games of the regular season.
Jones finished Sunday's 41-21 loss to the Texans with three tackles (two solo) and one interception. Jones was in the right place at the right time Sunday, as tight end Dalton Schultz bobbled a pass from C.J. Stroud in the Patriots' end zone, which Jones picked off and returned for 35 yards. It was Jones' third interception of his NFL career and his first since Week 15 of the 2022 season. Jones is up to 22 tackles (17 solo), two passes defended and one interception through the first six games of the regular season.
Jones (knee) was not on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday. Jones was limited to start the week, but his absence from the team's injury report for Thursday's game against the Jets suggests he should suit up for the divisional showdown. That's good news for a New England defense that is currently working through multiple injuries at all levels.
Jones (knee) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate. Jones played his usual workload in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, so it's not clear if he picked up a new injury during the matchup. Either way, his status for Monday suggests the team believes he'd have needed to take it easy had they actually held a practice Monday. More insight into his chances for suiting up Thursday against the Jets will likely come Tuesday or Wednesday.
Jones (shoulder) is ready to get back on the field during OTAs, Danny Jaillet of USA Today reports. Jones suffered a torn labrum in Week 2 last season and then spent the rest of the 2023 campaign on injured reserve. His ability to return to the field, and be ready for the 2024 campaign is great news for New England, who dealt with multiple injuries to key pieces of their secondary last year.
