DNP at Arkansas State Jones (undisclosed) did not play during Louisiana-Monroe's loss Saturday at Arkansas State.
Impact Jones has been Louisiana-Monroe's clear No. 2 option for some time, so his Week 13 absence is a surprise. Against Arkansas State, ULM solely relied on Ahmad Hardy in the running game, and he rewarded the team giving him a season-high 30 carries by logging 204 rushing yards and two touchdowns.

Stands out as No. 2 option Jones tallied nine carries for 50 yards and gathered in all two targets for 43 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 28-23 loss to Marshall.
Impact Jones operated as a change-of-pace back behind Ahmad Hardy, but Jones still put together a quality stat line. His 11 touches resulted in 93 yards, including a 41-yard touchdown catch from quarterback Aidan Armenta. Through seven games, Jones has 261 rushing yards, 80 receiving yards and three total touchdowns.

Sees significant run Jones accrued nine carries for 54 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 30-14 victory against Jackson State.
Impact Though Hunter Smith and Bennett Galloway were listed as ULM's starting running backs ahead of Thursday's contest, Ahmad Hardy and James Jones handled most of the carries. Hardy did outcarry Jones 19-9, but it's still a significantly larger role for Jones than initially expected. A reason for Smith and Galloway's inactivity wasn't provided, so it can be assumed that Hardy and Jones will remain the top two backs for the Week 2 matchup with UAB.
