Jones had an excused absence from Thursday's practice session, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones dealt with a wrist injury ahead of last week's game against the Titans, but Thursday's absence didn't appear to be related to an injury. However, coach Andy Reid expects that the defensive end will rejoin the team Friday, so it doesn't appear as though his status is in jeopardy for Monday night's game against the Giants.

Jones (wrist) is active for Sunday's contest against the Titans, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Jones will be active for Week 7 after missing the previous two games with a wrist injury. The 27-year-old defensive tackle has registered seven tackles and two sacks through four appearances this season.

Jones (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Titans, but coach Andy Reid expects him to play, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was a limited participant Wednesday and Thursday, but he was able to log a full practice Friday. The 27-year-old defensive tackle has missed two straight contests, but barring a setback, he will likely be available for Sunday's contest against the Titans.

Jones (wrist) returned to practice Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has missed two straight weeks with a wrist injury, but he appears on track to return for Week 7. The 27-year-old defensive tackle got off to a hot start with two sacks during the season opener, but he accumulated just four tackles over the next three contests. He will look to return to his Week 1 form against a Titans defense that has allowed 20 sacks through the first six weeks of the 2021 campaign.

Jones (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Washington, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports that Jones is close to returning, but it won't be this week, as he will miss his second straight game with the wrist injury. In his absence, Alex Okafor should again see extra playing time.

Jones (wrist) didn't practice Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was sidelined from practice last week, but he was given every chance to suit up in Week 5. However, he ended up missing Sunday night's clash with the Bills and continues to miss practices. The 27-year-old registered two sacks in Week 1, but he has been relatively silent since, so the Chiefs may elect to shut down their star defensive tackle to get him healthy for the stretch run.

Jones (wrist) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Bills, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
While the Chiefs wanted to give Jones every shot to play, his inability to practice all week was foreboding. Alex Okafor should see extra playing time in his stead.

The Chiefs are viewing Jones (wrist) -- who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Bills -- as a true game-time decision, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The star defensive end has been receiving ongoing treatment for his wrist and failed to practice in any capacity this week. Since recording two sacks in the season-opening win over Cleveland, Jones hasn't gotten to the quarterback in the past three weeks while tallying only four tackles.

Jones (wrist) is active for Sunday's contest against the Chargers, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has totaled five tackles and two sacks through the first two weeks of the season, but he will be expected to do a bit more Sunday, as the Chiefs will be without their top pass rusher Frank Clark. The 27-year-old defensive tackle will have to deal with the Chargers' hefty free-agent signees -- Corey Linsley and Matt Feiler.

Jones (wrist) should be able to play Sunday against the Chargers, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Chiefs' other top pass rusher, DE Frank Clark, is expected to miss the game with a hamstring injury. Jones, meanwhile, has five tackles and two sacks through two weeks, playing 77.0 percent of KC's defensive snaps. He does get a real challenge this Sunday, after the Chargers spent big to bring in C Corey Linsley and LG Matt Feiler this offseason. Of course, Jones is still a handful for any blocker.
