2025 Fantasy Outlook
Jones signed a three-year deal to remain in Denver this offseason, so he'll look to reprise his role as the Broncos' starting nose tackle in 2025. The 30-year-old finished the 2024 campaign with 42 total tackles (21 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while adding a fumble recovery and three passes defensed across 17 regular-season games. Jones should continue to play an important part of Denver's interior defensive line in his ninth year in the league. Read Past Outlooks

2020
Jones will enter the eighth year of his NFL career in 2024, playing out the final season of his three-year deal with the Broncos. The veteran nose tackle was an impactful playmaker for Denver's defense last season, recording 46 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks. Additionally, his three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries were both career highs. Jones should continue to be a key contributor for the Broncos' defense, as the 29-year-old will head into free agency in 2025.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be in line for extension
The Broncos may attempt to sign Jones to an extension this offseason, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN suggests.
ANALYSIS
The Broncos has been proactive in locking up core players such as Patrick Surtain and Garrett Bolles, and Jones could be next. While the 49ers originally drafted the defensive tackle, he has spent the last three years in Denver and has maintained a key role as a run stuffer. He is set to hit free agency this offseason and should be in line for another multi-year deal.
