Jones signed a contract with the Raiders on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones will join the Raiders after bouncing around multiple teams, including the Lions, Vikings and Titans, over the past three seasons. Over seven games with Tennessee last season, the cornerback registered seven tackles and one pass defended while playing 80 defensive and 61 special-teams snaps. Jones is approaching his age-27 season and could stand to provide some additional veteran depth if he makes Las Vegas' final 53-man roster.

Jones (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Jones (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old was claimed off waivers from the Lions at the start of the week and officially joined the active roster Saturday, but he won't be suiting up versus the Packers. Jones likely will fill a depth role if/when he makes his debut with Minnesota.

The Vikings lifted Jones' roster exemption Saturday, making him eligible to play Sunday versus the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
The Vikings claimed Jones off waivers from the Lions earlier this week, and he's cleared the necessary COVID-19 protocols to join the team. There's a decent chance he's still inactive Sunday because he hasn't practiced with the team, and if he suits up, he'll likely stick to a special teams role.
