Jones logged a tryout with the Packers on Monday, freelance NFL writer Howard Balzer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was a casualty last week in order for the Giants to make room for Golden Tate on the roster, but as evidenced by this news, is getting looks elsewhere. The 27-year-old played three games this season with New York, hauling in three of four targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in that span. Jones has had a history in the league, so he certainly makes for an intriguing option to provide receiver depth.

Jones was released by the Giants on Tuesday, Michael Eisen of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was released along with fellow receiver Bennie Fowler to make room for Golden Tate and Josiah Tauaefa on the 53-man roster. The 2014 sixth-round pick appeared in three games for the Giants this season, but he only registered statistics in Week 2, catching three passes for 38 yards and a score. He'll now have to find a new opportunity elsewhere.

Jones hauled in three of four targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Bills.

EDGE Analysis

Jones played 30 offensive snaps since Sterling Shepard (concussion) and Darius Slayton (hamstring) were out. Jones also passed Cody Core (14 snaps) in the wide receiver pecking order. The 27-year-old won't have this consistent of a snap count when Shepard and Slayton return, but for now he could have a solid role since Cody Latimer suffered a concussion Sunday as well.

Jones signed with the Giants on Wednesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Sterling Shepherd is in concussion protocol, the Giants are bringing Jones back -- he spent the preseason with the team -- to provide depth at wide receiver. He played a similar role with the Lions last year, recording 19 receptions on 26 targets for 190 yards and two scores.

Jones (undisclosed) was released by the Giants on Saturday, Ryan Dunleavy of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Notre Dame product was looking to earn a depth role in the Big Apple, but failed to do so. Jones also left Friday's preseason game with an injury, but per Dunleavy, the wideout didn't sustain anything serious.

Jones caught three of his four targets for 32 yards and a touchdown during Friday's 32-13 preseason win over the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Jones led the team in targets and helped them surge ahead with a 15-yard touchdown catch courtesy of Daniel Jones in the second quarter. It was his first notable contribution since joining the team a few weeks ago and a boon to his case to make the team as it struggles with attrition in the wideout ranks. Jones should have another chance to contribute Thursday against the Bengals.

Jones signed a contract with the Giants on Saturday, Pat Leonard of NY Daily News Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones lands in a tumultuous receiving room in New York, with Sterling Shepard (thumb) working to get healthy for Week 1, Golden Tate (suspension) appealing a four-game ban, and Corey Coleman (knee) out for the 2019 season. Jones, a 2014 sixth-round pick, spent the last four seasons with Detroit, appearing in 42 games while totaling 64 receptions for 814 yards and four touchdowns.

Jones caught all three of his targets, putting up 40 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 31-0 win against the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

Jones saw an uptick in his involvement within the Lions passing attack towards the end of the season, collecting 10 receptions (on 12 targets) for 87 yards over the past three weeks, compared to 10 receptions for 108 yards between Weeks 1 and 15. He went crazy in Week 17 specifically, picking up two receiving touchdowns against the Packers after accounting for two touchdowns through his first 41 NFL appearances. With Golden Tate already having been traded earlier this season, Jones has a chance to enter 2019 as the Lions No. 2 or 3 receiving option, depending on whether the team elects to acquire another target in free agency or the 2019 Draft.

Jones corralled all six of his targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 27-9 loss to the Vikings.

EDGE Analysis

Jones stepped up for the injury-riddled Lions, finishing 16 yards shy of Kenny Golladay's team-leading receiving total on nine fewer targets. The 2014 sixth-rounder came into this contest with just 10 catches all season, so he's likely to fall back into obscurity against the Packers in Week 16.

Jones secured one of three targets for five yards during Sunday's 14-13 loss to Buffalo.

EDGE Analysis

Bruce Ellington (hamstring) didn't play in this one, and the Lions chose to roll with Andy Jones over TJ Jones as the No. 2 wideout behind Kenny Golladay. Given how much TJ Jones has struggled to produce over the past few weeks despite Detroit's desperate need for someone to step up at receiver, there isn't much hope he'll be a worthwhile fantasy option over the final two weeks of the season -- despite how much opportunity is available to him.
