2025 Fantasy Outlook
Jones is joining the Commanders for his age-32 season after starting 71 of his 132 regular-season games in New England over the past nine years. He made 44 of those starts over the past three years, but he hasn't intercepted a pass since 2022 and finished both of the past two seasons with single-digit pass defenses and fewer than 60 tackles. Jones figures to compete for the nickelback job in Washington. Read Past Outlooks

Moves to IR
Jones (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Jones sustained a hamstring injury during the Commanders' Week 2 loss to the Packers, and the issue now appears serious enough to land him on IR. The Auburn product has played 41 total snaps (20 defensive and 21 on special teams) so far this season, recording two total tackles. In his stead, Noah Igbinoghene is expected to serve as Washington's top reserve corner.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Jones, who's been with the Patriots since 2016, racked up 48 tackles and seven pass breakups across 14 appearances with the team in 2023. This coming season, the 30-year-old will reprise his key role in a cornerback group that also features Christian Gonzalez and Marcus Jones. In order to find his way back onto the IDP radar, however, the Auburn product will need to regain the ball-hawking ability he displayed in 2022, when he logged four picks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Remains in New England's plans
Other teams inquired about Jones' availability at the trade deadline, but the Patriots declined to trade him, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Patriots have made an effort to get younger on the defensive side of the ball, trading away veteran Josh Uche while also parting ways with Raekwon McMillan. Jones would have been a natural fit to also be on his way out, as he's in his age-31 season and on the final year of his current contract. The cornerback says he received assurances he remains in the team's plans however, so perhaps a contract extension is in the works.
