Jones adds depth for San Francisco behind starters Deommodore Lenoir and Renardo Green at outside cornerback.Jones showed flashes as a rookie with New England, but got cut midway through his second season. He signed with the Las Vegas Raiders and made a big impact with two interception returns for TDs in back-to-back wins over the Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City.Jones wasn't nearly as effective the following season, when his aggressive play contributed to him allowing 10 touchdowns in coverage, according to Pro Football Focus.He was released by Las Vegas last April and signed with Miami before the season.Jones has eight interceptions and 33 passes defensed in four seasons in the NFL. His four career pick-sixes are the second most in the NFL since he entered the league in 2022.
