Jones (knee/hamstring) underwent surgery to address a torn LCL in his right knee and a hamstring avulsion Thursday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones suffered both of the injuries in the team's 13-10 loss to the Packers in Week 3, and he will now shift his focus to being ready to go for the 2026 campaign. In his absence, Cornelius Lucas is expected to take over at starting left tackle moving forward with the Browns this season.

Cleveland placed Jones (knee) on its injured reserve list Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
In a corresponding transaction, the Browns signed offensive tackle Thayer Munford on Wednesday. Jones sustained an ugly knee injury in the first quarter of Week 3 action versus the Packers when cornerback Javon Bullard (concussion) made a low hit on him, and now he'll have to spend the rest of the season on Cleveland's injured reserve list. For the time being, veteran Cornelius Lucas projects to start at left tackle.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday that Jones needs season-ending knee surgery, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones sustained a knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday's win over the Packers that will sideline him for the remainder of Cleveland's 2025 campaign. The Ohio State product has struggled with injuries since entering the league, missing 13 regular-season games over the past three seasons. Cornelius Lucas is likely the next man up at left tackle for the Browns ahead of a Week 4 matchup against the Lions.

EDGE Analysis
Jones dealt with a knee injury during the Browns' 2024 campaign, missing the team's final seven games. However, he returned to practice Wednesday, appearing to have moved past the issue. Now healthy again, Jones is expected to serve as Cleveland's top left tackle in 2025.

Jones (knee) is recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery and is currently using crutches, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones landed on IR last November due to a season-ending broken fibula, and it looks like he was also dealing with a lingering knee issue that required surgery to address. He previously missed the final five games of the 2023 campaign, his rookie season, due to a torn MCL. Oyefusi reports that Jones will be available for the start of training camp late July.

Cleveland placed Jones (lower leg) on its injured reserve list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones suffered a broken fibula during Sunday's game at New Orleans, and now he'll spend the rest of the season on injured reserve. If regular starter Jedrick Wills continues to miss time due to his knee issue, Germain Ifedi would figure to be the next man up for the Browns at tackle.

Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Jones will miss the remainder of the season due to a fractured fibula, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was already known after Sunday's game at New Orleans that Jones would miss the rest of the year, but the precise nature of his injury was disclosed a bit later. With his departure, Germain Ifedi is set to become Cleveland's primary backup at tackle, a role that's especially important now given that regular starting left tackle Jedrick Wills is dealing with a knee issue.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters that Jones will be out for the rest of the regular season after fracturing his left ankle during Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was carted off the field and had his left leg in an air cast in the second quarter of Sunday's game. Further tests confirmed that Jones fractured his left ankle, and the 2023 fourth-round pick will undergo surgery, per Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal. With Jones done for the year, Jedrick Wills would figure to start at left tackle if he's able to overcome a knee injury, otherwise Germain Ifedi -- who came in for Jones on Sunday -- would hold that spot.
