Nic Jones: Everything you need to know

Jones (shoulder) is slated to re-sign with the Giants, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Jones missed the Giants final four games in 2025 due to a shoulder injury, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. The 2023 seventh-round pick from Ball State appeared in 13 games last season, recording eight total tackles and one pass defensed across 211 total snaps (192 on special teams, 19 on defense). He's expected to compete for a depth spot in the Giants' secondary throughout the summer.

The Giants placed Jones (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Jones' season is officially over after undergoing surgery on his shoulder Friday. The 24-year-old ended up appearing in 13 games during the 2025 campaign and logged eight tackles (three solo) while seeing the majority of his playing time on special teams. He'll now shift his focus to getting healthy for the 2026 season.

Jones (shoulder) underwent season-ending shoulder surgery Friday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
