News

  • Inks four-year extension

    Jones (foot) and the Falcons reached an agreement on a four-year, $57 million extension Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: When healthy, Jones has been highly productive through three seasons, averaging 129.3 tackles and 3.5 sacks per 16 games played. Last year, he was limited to six appearances due to a foot injury, which impacted his offseason practice reps. The Falcons open training camp Saturday, at which point his status will become more clear. No matter, the middle linebacker has been locked up for the foreseeable future.

  • Nursing foot injury

    Jones won't participate in drills at mandatory minicamp this week while rehabbing a foot injury, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Jones did not take part in the offseason program to this point but arrived for mandatory minicamp Monday while still recovering from the foot issue, which likely is the one that forced a stint on IR last season. It's not yet known if it is expected to impact his availability for the start of training camp.

  • Foresees defensive improvement

    Jones portrayed Thursday that the Falcons defense will be eager to improve next season after a rocky 2018 campaign. "I think it's going to be a little bit different," Jones said of his expectations for the Atlanta defense in 2019. "(We) have a chip on (our) shoulder about what happened this year and guys coming back have a lot to prove. We've just got to put it all together and set our standard and get after it."

    Analysis: Other than foreseeing an attitude adjustment for the Falcons defense in 2019, Jones also exuded optimism about head coach Dan Quinn assuming defensive play-calling responsibilities for the recently dismissed Marquand Manuel. "He's always been around us, but now we'll have him around permanently," Jones explained. "It will be great to have him. He knows each guy; each aspect of the defense and he'll have it rolling." Jones himself is aiming for a bounce-back season after a foot injury cost him…read more

  • Limted production in finale

    Jones registered four stops and two pass deflections during Sunday's 34-32 win over the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: A Pro Bowler a season earlier, Jones' 2018 campaign got off to an unfortunate start when he broke his foot in the opener and missed the subsequent 10 games. He returned to impressive form once he was activated from injured reserve, however, churning out 44 tackles and returning an interception for a touchdown between Weeks 13 and 17. An elite all-around linebacker when fully healthy, Jones will anchor the Atlanta defense in 2019.

  • Practices fully Thursday

    Jones (foot) was a full participant at Thursday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jones landed on the injury report Wednesday as a limited participant with the foot injury, but his quick return to full participation confirms it to be a minor issue. The 24-year-old should serve in his usual starting role at middle linebacker for Sunday's season finale against the Buccaneers.

  • Limited at Wednesday's session

    Jones was limited during Wednesday's session with a foot injury, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jones' foot issue is not believed to be all too serious given his ability to practice, albeit in a limited fashion. We should have a clearer indication of his status for Sunday's game a little bit later this week.

  • Team's leading tackler in win

    Jones tallied 14 combined tackles and one forced fumble during Sunday's 24-10 win against the Panthers.

    Analysis: Atlanta's star middle linebacker has had an undeniable impact on the defense's ability to slow down opponents this season, as the Falcons allow 20.4 points per game when he is active, compared to 28.9 when he was inactive between Weeks 2 and 12 with a foot injury. Jones has demonstrated an insatiable nose for the football in five appearances this season, accounting for 9.8 tackles per game and twice exceeding 13 tackles in a single performance. A stellar pass defender in addition to his prowess…read more

  • Notches pick-six in win

    Jones recorded four tackles (three solo), two passes defensed and returned an interception for a touchdown during Sunday's win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Jones added a defensive score to his impressive resume since returning from a 10-game absence due to a foot injury. He's now forced two turnovers in just four games this season and will face a struggling Panthers squad on the road in Week 16.

  • Team-high six tackles in loss

    Jones recorded five solo tackles and one assisted tackle during Sunday's 34-20 loss to Green Bay.

    Analysis: Jones was effective in helping slow down Packers back Aaron Jones, tackling the explosive runner for a gain of four or fewer rushing yards on four occasions Sunday (averages 5.6 yards per carry on the season). He forced incompletions both times he was targeted, and he very nearly recorded a pick-six off Aaron Rodgers two minutes before the end of the first half. The third-year linebacker has fully worked his way back into the fold after recovering from a Week 1 foot injury, as Atlanta prepares…read more

  • Dominant in Week 13 return

    Jones recorded a team-high 15 combined tackles, including one sack, during Sunday's 26-16 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Even with its Pro Bowl middle linebacker in the mix once again, Atlanta allowed Baltimore to rack up north of 200 rushing yards, helping the Ravens establish a staggering 39:39 time of possession. Jones' presence in the lineup did at least stymie running back production in the passing game, an area that has devastated the Falcons defensively this season. Ravens backs combined for six receptions and 48 yards with Jones active Sunday, compared to 7.8 catches and 63.6 receiving yards allowed to…read more

  • Set to suit up Sunday

    Coach Dan Quinn confirmed that Jones (foot) will suit up Sunday against the Ravens, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: According to Butt, Quinn relayed that Jones won't face a specialized snap count in his return from an 11-game absence, so the middle linebacker should reclaim his usual starting role while not carrying an injury designation into the Week 13 matchup. The loss of Jones, who excels both in coverage and against the run, had been the most significant hit to an injury-ravaged Atlanta defense that has seen its performance suffer mightily in 2018. While Jones' return may come too late to salvage the…read more

  • Listed as limited, calling plays

    Jones (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Per D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jones was back to calling signals with the first-team defense at practice, a strong hint he's gearing up to return for Sunday's game against the Ravens. While one good player probably isn't enough to fix the broken Atlanta defense, Jones could pay immediate dividends for those who use him in IDP settings, especially if the Ravens continue to utilize a run-heavy game plan featuring Lamar Jackson and Gus Edwards. Per McClure, coach Dan…read more

  • Week 13 return possible

    Coach Dan Quinn is optimistic Jones (foot) will be able to play Week 13 against the Ravens, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jones was activated off injured reserve earlier this month but has been inactive for the two games since his return to the active roster. Quinn expressed a similar sentiment earlier this week before the 24-year-old was ultimately ruled out for Thursday's loss to the Saints. Jones will have some additional time to prepare for the Ravens after the quick turnaround this week, but there remains no guarantee he returns at all, as the Falcons now sit at 4-7 with the playoffs seemingly out of reach,…read more

  • Ruled out for Thanksgiving Day

    Jones (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Saints, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Jones wasn't able to advance beyond limited participation in practices Monday through Wednesday, which was enough to prevent him from playing for the first time since the season opener. Though the Falcons brought Jones back from injured reserve ahead of last week's loss to the Cowboys, it's not a given that the star middle linebacker will suit up again this season, according to Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com. Coach Dan Quinn has said all along that he won't bring back Jones to play on a "pitch…read more

  • Aiming to return Thursday

    The Falcons hope Jones (foot) will be able to return for Thursday's game at New Orleans, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Although he was activated from IR last Monday, Jones didn't progress enough last week to be cleared to play in Sunday's eventual loss to the Cowboys. Per Jason Butt of The Athletic, Jones kicked off this week with no activity at Monday's walk-through. Despite this fact, coach Dan Quinn told Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com that Jones will put in a workout Monday, after which his health will be checked out. It remains to be seen whether the middle linebacker will make his second appearance of the…read more

  • Sidelined for Week 11

    Coach Dan Quinn said that Jones (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Falcons' decision to activate Jones from injured reserve Monday seemed to suggest the linebacker was on track to play in Week 11. However, after evaluating Jones during the Falcons' three practices this week, Quinn and the Atlanta training staff determined the 24-year-old could benefit from some more time to get up to speed following foot surgery. There's been no indication that Jones suffered any setbacks since being activated from IR, so he should have a decent shot at playing for the…read more

  • Limited again Thursday

    Jones (foot) was limited in practice Thursday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Although Jones was activated from injured reserve Monday, the Falcons will take a cautious approach with the linebacker before clearing him for game action. As evidence, coach Dan Quinn wants Jones' foot to be 100 percent before doing so, according to Kelsey Conway of the team's official site. With back-to-back limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday, Jones may not be there yet. One way or another, Friday's injury report could confirm as much.

  • Drawing closer to return

    Coach Dan Quinn said the team will ensure Jones (foot) is "100 percent" before clearing him to return to game action, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: After he was activated from injured reserve Monday, Jones was included on Wednesday's injury report, which listed him as a limited participation, per Will McFadden of the team's official site. Quinn's comment seems to indicate this listing will have to change from "limited" to "full" for Jones to be available on gameday. Only time will tell if this is the case, but Jones' first opportunity to return arrives Sunday against the Cowboys.

  • Activated from injured reserve

    The Falcons activated Jones (foot) from injured reserve Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.

    Analysis: The Falcons never elaborated on the foot injury that Jones suffered in the season opener, but after returning to practice last Wednesday he's more or less cleared to return to action. His upcoming availability could be confirmed as early as Wednesday, when the team will release its first Week 11 injury report. When he takes the field, he'll be aiming to uphold his career mark of nearly eight tackles per game, which makes him an intriguing IDP option.

  • Progressing towards return

    Jones (foot) is eligible to return from injured reserve and is being evaluated, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Jones returned to practice last week, but it appears that the Falcons have no plans to rush the star linebacker onto the field before he fully recovers. Jones is eligible to suit up for Sunday's game against the Cowboys -- which Atlanta will need to win in order to keep their season alive -- but there seems to be a good chance of the third-year pro remaining sidelined Week 11.

  • Returning to practice

    Jones (foot) resumed practicing Wednesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Jones won't show up on the injury report because he's still on injured reserve, but he will be eligible for activation to the 53-man roster as soon as Week 11 against Dallas. The Falcons have a 21-day window to decide on Jones' eligibility for the rest of the season now that he's returned to practice. The team can keep him on IR if he suffers a setback, but it seems more likely he'll be activated within the next few weeks, potentially providing a major boost to a lackluster Atlanta defense.…read more

  • Could return to practice Week 10

    Jones (foot) may return to practice Week 10, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Jones has progressed well in his recovery from a foot injury sustained during Atlanta's season-opener, and Week 10 is the earliest he's eligible to begin practicing. If all goes well, the star middle linebacker could return from injured reserve for the Falcons' Nov. 18 game against the Cowboys. Jones' presence will be a big boost to Atlanta's defense whenever he is able to fully return.
