2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Patriots took Jones in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft, and while he may not have racked up big overall counting numbers - 39 tackles and two picks (one pick-six) in 15 games - as a rookie, the 5-8,175-pounder did make his presence felt beyond his work at cornerback. Not only did he serve as the team's primary returner, he even chipped in on offense, catching four passes for 78 yards and a TD. Look for more of the same this season, though the Houston product's fantasy upside still hinges on getting regular snaps in New England's secondary. Read Past Outlooks

Shoulder
September 22, 2023
The Patriots officially placed Jones (shoulder) on injured reserve Friday.
ANALYSIS
Jones will miss at least four contests due to a torn labrum sustained Week 2 versus the Dolphins, though the nature of his injury could result in a longer absence. Until the rookie third-round pick is able to return, Shaun Wade and Myles Bryant will stand to handle expanded roles on defense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely nickel corner in 2023
CBNew England Patriots
March 26, 2023
Zack Cox of NESN.com views Jones as the favorite to operate as New England's slot cornerback in his second NFL season.
ANALYSIS
Jones was an All-Pro punt returner in his rookie season, though his biggest play was aided by an uncalled block in the back. The versatile cornerback also moonlighted as an offensive player in 2022 but filled a depth role on defense. Cox believes Jones is ready for a more prominent role in New England's secondary in his second NFL season.
