Keep up with the latest injuries from the Falcons vs Jets game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Oct 25, 2025
Goes on injured reserve
The Jets placed Jones (hip) on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Jones sustained a hip injury during the Jets' Week 6 loss against the Broncos. He wasn't able to play Week 7 against the Panthers, and after being ruled out for Week 8 against the Bengals, it's been determined that his injury is severe enough for him to warrant a stint on IR. Jones will be forced to miss at least the next four games, which makes Week 13 against the Falcons on Sunday, Nov. 30 the earliest he is eligible to return.

Remains sidelined for Week 8
Jones (hip) won't play Sunday against the Bengals, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones will miss a second consecutive game due to the hip injury he sustained in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Broncos. The Jets are hoping to activate usual starter Quincy Williams (shoulder) from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game. If Williams joins Jones on the sidelines, Ja'Markis Weston would be next in line to start.

Not cleared to play Week 7
Jones (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
ANALYSIS
Jones drew the doubtful tag for Week 7 after not practicing all week, and he'll observe Sunday's home game on the sidelines in street clothes. Ja'Markis Weston was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and he could see a sizeable snap count at outside linebacker opposite Francisco Mauigoa due to Jones' injury. Jones' next opportunity to play is Week 8 against the Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 26.

Doubtful for Sunday
Jones (hip) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Indiana product was unable to practice all week after sustaining a hip injury in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Broncos, so it's no surprise that he'll likely be sidelined Sunday. Jones has played primarily on special teams this season (three defensive snaps, and 105 special-teams snaps), recording four total tackles. Mark Robinson could see increased work as a reserve outside linebacker while Jones is likely out in Week 7.

Opens week with DNP
Jones (hip) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones sustained a hip injury during the Jets Week 6 loss to the Broncos. He'll have two more opportunities to return to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days to have a chance at playing against the Panthers on Sunday. Jones has been primarily used on special teams, though his absence would dilute a Jets linebacker corps that is already dealing with injuries to Quincy Williams (shoulder), Marcelino McCrary-Ball (hamstring) and Ja'Markis Weston (groin).

Exits with hip injury

Listed as active Friday
Jones (illness) is listed as active Friday against the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Jones was listed as a 'DNP' on Tuesday, but was then deemed a full practice participant on Thursday's injury report. With his Friday availability confirmed, Jones should maintain his presence on the Chiefs' special teams in Week 13.
Nov 28, 2024
Questionable to play Friday
Jones (illness) has been deemed questionable to suit up in Friday's Week 13 matchup against the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Jones has been dealing with an illness and was held out of the first two practices this week. However, he was estimated as a full participant during Thursday's walkthrough, which bodes well for his chance of playing Friday. Jones has been a fixture on special teams this season but has yet to play a defensive snap through 11 contests.

Two tackles vs. Jacksonville
Jones (chest) registered two tackles (one solo) in Saturday's 26-13 preseason loss to the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Jones missed the final three playoff games for the Chiefs last season due to a chest injury he sustained in the wild-card round against the Dolphins. He was back on the field for Kansas City's preseason opener, when he played 39 snaps (29 on defense, 10 on special teams). Jones played mostly on special teams last season, and he's looking to make the Chiefs' 53-man roster in a depth linebacker role.

ANALYSIS

Jones (chest) won't practice Wednesday, Matt Derrick of Chiefs Digest reports.
