Jones signed a reserve/future contract with the Seahawks on Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports. The running back was elevated to the active roster for Super Bowl LX, played 23 snaps on special teams and downed a punt on New England's two yard line. Jones appeared in three games for Seattle during the 2025 regular season, carrying the ball four times for 32 yards.

Jones reverted to Seattle's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Jones was elevated to the active roster ahead of the Super Bowl and played 23 snaps on special teams and downed a Michael Dickson punt on New England's two-yard line. The 28-year-old appeared in three regular-season games with the Seahawks during the 2025 season and rushed for 32 yards on four carries.

The Seahawks elevated Jones from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports. Jones was elevated for the NFC Championship Game against the Rams, but ended up inactive on game day as the Seahawks chose Cam Akers to be the No. 3 running back behind Kenneth Walker and George Holani. A similar fate is likely in store for Jones this Sunday as the Seahawks take on the Patriots in Super Bowl LX.
