Velus Jones News: Elevated to active roster

The Seahawks elevated Jones from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Jones will join George Holani and Cam Akers as a backup to Kenneth Walker for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams. The elevation likely comes due to the absence of Zach Charbonnet (ACL), who suffered a season-ending injury in last Saturday's win over the 49ers. The 28-year-old Jones has played just 20 offensive snaps this year, with 11 coming in last week's win.
