The Cardinals placed Jones (Achilles) on injured reserve Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Jonathan Gannon confirmed Wednesday that Jones suffered an Achilles tear during Arizona's loss to the Seahawks in Week 10, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports, meaning the veteran wideout is ruled out of the rest of the season. He now faces a difficult road to recovery ahead of the 2026 campaign. Jones inked a one-year, $4.4 million contract to remain with Arizona last March, so he's scheduled to hit free agency in the upcoming offseason.

Coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Jones will be placed on injured reserve due to an Achilles injury, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gannon didn't specifically say that Jones tore his Achilles, but he'll miss at least the next four games as a result of the injury that he sustained during Sunday's loss at Seattle. Through eight appearances this season, Jones has hauled in 12 of 18 targets for 183 yards and no touchdowns. Greg Dortch figures to take on a larger role in Jones' absence.

Jones won't return to Sunday's game at Seattle due to an Achilles injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones went to the turf after an incompletion in his direction in the middle of the second quarter, and trainers specifically were tending to his lower left leg. After he was carted to the locker room, Arizona announced the nature of the injury. Through eight appearances this season, Jones has 12 catches (on 18 targets) for 183 yards and no touchdowns.

Jones (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Seattle, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
He played through the same injury last week, handling a 52 percent snap share without seeing a target in the 27-17 win over Dallas. Jones should be fine to fill his usual role as the No. 3 WR in a TE-centric offense.

Jones (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones' knee issue has impacted his practice reps since Week 6 prep, but he's been able to suit up for each of Arizona's last three games, netting 146 yards and no touchdowns on seven catches (10 targets) during that span. Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not he heads into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest at Seattle.

Jones (knee) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones again is dealing with the knee injury that has lingered since Week 6 prep (in advance of Arizona's last three games). He's suited up for all three and combined for seven catches (on 10 targets) for 146 yards and no touchdowns while working with QB Jacoby Brissett. With Kyler Murray's (foot) placement on IR on Wednesday, Jones will be on the receiving end of passes from Brissett for at least the next four contests, assuming the wide receiver is healthy enough to be active himself.

Jones wasn't targeted during Monday's 27-17 victory at Dallas.
EDGE Analysis
Jones emerged from the Cardinals' Week 8 bye with practice restrictions due to a lingering knee issue, but he avoided a designation ahead of Monday's game. He proceeded to log a customary 52 percent snap share but was blanked in the box score for the second time in seven appearances this season. Jones is firmly behind fellow WRs Marvin Harrison and Michael Wilson in the pecking order at the position, making him a hit-or-miss option on a weekly basis.

Jones (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has been working through a lingering knee issue since early October. His practice reps were limited Thursday and Friday, but he's avoided an injury tag for Week 9 after practicing without restrictions Saturday. Jones recorded seven catches (on 10 targets) for 146 yards over the two games prior to the Cardinals' Week 8 bye. Jacoby Brissett was the starter in those two games, and the veteran quarterback will draw the start against Dallas while Kyler Murray -- who is listed as questionable for Week 9 due to a foot sprain -- will serve as the backup if active.

Jones (knee) was a limited practice participant Friday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
In the wake of the Cardinals' Week 8 bye, Jones continues to tend to the knee injury that has bothered him since Week 6 prep. With back-to-back capped sessions under his belt this week, he likely will need to log a full practice Saturday in order to avoid a designation for Monday's game at Dallas. If Jones is able to suit up Week 9, the question remains who between Kyler Murray and Jacoby Brissett will be under center, as Murray remains limited due to a lingering mid-foot sprain.

Jones (knee) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Jones appears to be dealing with the same knee issue that capped his practice reps before the Cardinals' last two games before a Week 8 bye. While working with fill-in QB Jacoby Brissett with Kyler Murray (foot) inactive for those contests, Jones hauled in seven of 10 passes for 146 yards and no touchdowns (after combining for a 5-37-0 line on seven targets in his first four appearances of the season). There's a chance Brissett again leads Arizona's offense Monday at Dallas, as Murray kicked off Week 9 prep as a limited participant as well.
