Jones tallied 145 tackles (74 solo), 4.5 sacks and six passes defended during the 2023 regular season.

EDGE Analysis

With former teammate Bobby Wagner departing for Seattle, the third-year pro took another leap in performance, setting career highs in snaps, tackles, sacks and passes defended while anchoring the defense alongside Aaron Donald. Jones' 145 tackles (in just 15 regular-season games) set the Rams record for most tackles in a single season, eclipsing the 142 James Laurinaitis recorded in 2011 and tied in 2012. Jones is entering the final year of his rookie deal in 2024, and given the multi-faceted abilities he's showcased as the head of a young Rams linebacker corps, it wouldn't be shocking to see Jones earn a contract extension to continue his role as a leader on defense.

Jones (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was among seven key contributors that the Rams listed as doubtful -- and one of five for noninjury reasons -- ahead of the regular-season finale. The Rams will be the NFC's No. 6 or 7 seed regardless of the outcome of Week 18 games, so Jones and some of the team's other stars will get a respite Sunday to avoid sustaining potential injuries in advance of the postseason. The linebacker finishes the regular season with 145 tackles, 4.5 sacks and six pass breakups over 15 appearances.

Rams head coach Sean McVay said Jones won't play Sunday in San Francisco, Greg Beacham of the Associated Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Los Angeles having locked up playoff spot, the team is electing to rest several of its starters on both sides of the ball in the regular-season finale. Jones thus will finish his third NFL season with a career-high 145 tackles (74 solo) to go with 4.5 sacks over 15 contests.

Jones recorded 13 tackles (seven solo), one quarterback hit and one tackle for loss during Sunday's 26-25 victory against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Despite coming into the contest questionable with an illness, the third-year linebacker played every snap on defense and resumed his role as team leader in tackles. Jones' 13 stops marked his eighth time this season with double digits in that category, and his 145 tackles this season has him tied for seventh overall in the NFL with T.J. Edwards of the Bears heading into Week 18.

Jones (illness) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Despite logging a DNP on Friday due to an illness, Jones will suit up in Week 17. The third-year linebacker out of South Carolina has appeared in 14 games this season, logging 132 total tackles, including 13 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks. He'll look to cause problems for Tyrod Taylor and the Giants' offense Sunday.

Jones (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was added to the Rams' Week 17 injury report Friday, logging a DNP with an illness. He's had a breakout 2023 in the middle of the Rams' defense, logging a team-best 132 tackles (67 solo), including 4.5 sacks.

Jones (illness) did not practice Friday, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones could be in jeopardy of missing the Rams' Week 17 affair after he was unable to practice Friday due to an illness. The third-year pro has started all 14 games he's appeared in for Los Angeles this season, logging 132 total tackles, including 13 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks. Jones will almost certainly carry an injury designation into the weekend after missing Friday's practice.
