Jones has sat out the past couple of weeks of practice due to a "soft tissue injury," the Indianapolis Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was one of four players on the Colts defense to record 100-plus tackles last season and started all 17 regular-season games. There are few details on his injury, so his status will need to be monitored early in training camp.

Jones tallied 100 total tackles (66 solo), 12 passes defended, including two interceptions, and forced one fumble across 17 regular-season games in 2024.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was one of four players on the Colts' defense to record 100-plus tackles this season, starting all 17 of the team's games. The second-year pro from Texas A&M has now started 27 of the 34 regular-season contests he's appeared in, leading Indianapolis in passes defended and tying for second in interceptions in 2024. With two years remaining on his rookie contract, Jones is expected remain with the Colts in 2025. The 22-year-old is likely to remain continue serving as one of Indianapolis' top outside cornerbacks next season after an impressive 2024 campaign.

Jones (throat) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.

Jones injured his throat in the fourth quarter of the Colts' Week 16 win over the Titans. While Indianapolis didn't practice Wednesday, his full practice listing suggests that the injury won't linger into Sunday's game against the Giants.

Jones (throat) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones suffered a throat injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game. Given that the game has entered the final two minutes of the fourth quarter, he may have been held out for the rest of the contest out of precaution. His practice participation over the week will determine his availability for Week 17 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 29.

Jones started and recorded five total tackles and two interceptions in Sunday's 21-16 win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Jones struggled in coverage Week 1 but has shown improvement in both of the ensuing two games. He played on all 90 of the Colts' defensive snaps Week 3, so he looks entrenched as a starter at right cornerback after winning the role in training camp.

Jones has been logging work with the starters during OTAs, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones worked primarily as a starter last season, though that was largely due to Dallis Flowers suffering an Achilles injury in Week 4. Flowers has returned to the field, but Jones has nonetheless been getting work with the Colts' defensive starters during OTAs. It's possible that Jones will be able to retain his starting role following a strong rookie campaign during which he tallied 44 tackles (33 solo) and five defensed passes over 17 regular-season contests.
