Bill Belichick’s risky approach at corner indicates schematic shift for Patriots

Removed from PUP list Jones (shoulder) is practicing Monday, indicating that he has been removed from the active/PUP list, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

Impact Jones appears to be fully recovered from October shoulder surgery. He missed less than two weeks of training camp before gaining clearance to practice.

Won't be available to practice Jones (shoulder) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Patriots on Thursday, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Jones was a full participant during the first day of New England's voluntary OTAs in May, but he appears to still be working his way back from shoulder surgery undergone in October. The defensive back can be activated off this list at any time before the start of the regular season, but he will be unable to practice in training camp until then. Jones played 212 defensive snaps before suffering his shoulder injury last season and he should fill a prominent role at cornerback for New England in 2022.

Full go during Day 1 of OTAs Jones (shoulder) was a full participant during Day 1 of New England's OTAs on Monday, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Jones underwent season-ending shoulder surgery in October and has been able to participate during the Patriots' voluntary offseason workouts in a limited fashion. However, Monday was the first time the veteran defensive back was able to handle all activities in a practice since his surgery in October. Prior to his injury, Jones posted 20 tackles and one interception across six games and was a key member of the Patriots secondary. If healthy, he figures to garner a similar role in 2022.

Prior to going down, Jones posted 20 tackles and one interceptions across six games and was a key member of the Patriots' secondary.

The 28-year-old is under contract with New England through the 2022 season, and now that he's moving past his shoulder woes Jones is on track to reprise his duties as the team's primary slot cornerback.

Set for season-ending surgery Jones (shoulder) will undergo season-ending surgery Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Jones was placed on injured reserve after he recently sustained a shoulder injury, and the issue will force him to miss the remainder of the season. The 28-year-old recorded 20 tackles (15 solo), an interception and three pass defenses in 2021.

Lands on IR Jones (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

Impact Jones was ruled out for Week 7 on Friday, but he will now miss at least three weeks with the move to injured reserve. Joejuan Williams will likely see an increased role during Jones' absence.

OCTOBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Sunday Jones (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Jones was unable to practice due to his shoulder injury Friday, and the issue will keep him off the field in Week 7. Joejuan Williams should see an increased snap count against the Jets.

Returns quickly Jones (ribs) has already returned to Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Apparently, he has overcome the pain that sent him to the locker room. He'll resume his role in the New England secondary.

OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Leaves with rib injury Jones went to the locker room with a rib injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Dallas, Jori Epstein of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Jones was bent over on the field for a few minutes before heading to the locker room, where he was reported to be in a lot of pain. This leaves the Patriots very thin in the secondary as a number of their corners came into the game inactive for various reasons. Justin Bethel usually only sees special teams work but is now in line for extra snaps.

Off injured list Jones (undisclosed) isn't listed on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.

Impact Jones injured himself in a joint practice with the Giants, but he is now off the injury list and is expected to play in New England's season opener against the Dolphins. The Patriots don't have much depth at cornerback this season, so Jones' health could end up being crucial for the teams' secondary.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers minor injury Thursday Jones (undisclosed) suffered a minor injury during Thursday's joint practice with the Giants, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

Impact Jones finished the 2020 campaign with 74 tackles and two interceptions in 16 games, and he is expected to be a key cog in the team's secondary this season. The 27-year-old's health is important for the Patriots as they already have a thin cornerback group, and they recently tried to remedy that issue by trading for fifth-round pick Shaun Wade.

AUGUST 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Notches 74 tackles in 2020 Jones finished the 2020 season with a career-high 74 tackles and two interceptions in 16 games.

Impact With Jones under contract with New England through the 2022 campaign, the 27-year old will continue to be a key cog in the team's secondary next season. In that capacity, the Auburn product will merit attention in deeper IDP formats.

JANUARY 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ready to rock Jones (neck) is officially active for Thursday's game versus the Rams.

Impact Jones came into the game as a game-time call after missing last week's game against the Chargers with the neck issue, but his addition will be a boost to the secondary. Jones will likely handle his usual depth role in the secondary, as he's spent time on defense and on special teams this season.

DECEMBER 11, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call Thursday Jones (neck) was listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Rams, Andrew Callahan of Boston Herald reports.

Impact Jones was forced out of last week's win over the Chargers with the neck issue, as he logged limited practice time throughout the week. It appears Jones is trending as a true game-time decision for the game, as his status won't be known until an hour and a half prior to kickoff. If he's forced to sit, Jason McCourty and Myles Bryant would be in line for more snaps at cornerback for the contest.

DECEMBER 10, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Limited on Monday Jones (neck) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate.

Impact Jones suffered this injury during this past Sunday's 45-0 win over the Chargers. He was one of 14 players to be listed as LP on the practice estimate. His status should become more clear as the week progresses, and he'll aim to recover quickly with a Thursday night game against the Rams on the horizon.

DECEMBER 7, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Departs with neck injury Jones was forced out of Sunday's game against the Chargers with a neck injury.

Impact Jones made one tackle before leaving the game. Jason McCourty likely will absorb the reps left behind by Jones, but Myles Bryant could handle increased duties as well.
