The Texans didn't sign Jones after his workout with the team Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was one of multiple free agents whom the Texans brought in for a workout after Week 5's loss to the Patriots. The 27-year-old safety reached an injury settlement with the Jaguars during the preseason, so it's a positive sign to see him healthy and looking for a job.

Jones signed a one-year contract with the Jaguars on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones recorded a career high in tackles with the Jaguars in his 2020 campaign (83 tackles). Though the 26-year-old sat third on the team, he managed to start all 13 of his games this past year. Jones will aim to continue building his safety role on defense in the upcoming season.

Jones had one solo tackle Week 17 against the Colts and had 83 tackles (59 solo) and one interception in 13 games this season.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old failed to establish himself with the Packers and Cowboys over the first three years of his career, but he started 13 games for the Jags in 2020 and ranked third on the team with 83 tackles. He also struggled in coverage and allowed 33 of 38 passes to be completed for a 138.9 QB rating. Jones is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason and is unlikely to receive interest for a starting job on any contending teams.

Jones (chest) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones is expected to start at strong safety in Sunday's game against the Vikings. With the Jaguars' top three cornerbacks out, Jones' return is a major boost to the secondary. During the first eight games of the season, the 2017 second-round pick produced 61 tackles.

The Jaguars designated Jones (chest) for a return from injured reserve Wednesday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has resided on IR since Nov. 14, as Wednesday marked the first time Jones returned to practice since his chest injury. The team will now have 21 days to activate him, otherwise he'll miss the remainder of the 2020 season. Jones could step into the lineup as early as Sunday's game against Minnesota, but expect Andrew Wingard to continue to start at strong safety until Jones gets back to full strength.
