Jones had the start of his NFL career derailed by a torn ACL, but a change of scenery in 2024, when he signed with Denver, revitalized his outlook. After never emerging as a full-time start in four seasons with Miami, Jones set a career high with 919 defensive snaps in his initial campaign with the Broncos. His breakout wasn't just a matter of expanded opportunity, as Jones delivered when he was on the field. He limited quarterbacks to a 63.7 passer rating, while surrendering only 5.98 yards per target. Jones wasn't asked to step into the box all that frequently, but he was still solid in run defense as well. The Broncos' addition of Talanoa Hufanga creates a moderate amount of risk of Jones losing snaps in 2025, but he clearly out-played P.J. Locke in 2024 and should enter training camp with the upper hand if there is a competition.
