NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Jones’ contract includes $15 million guaranteed. Traded twice last season, Jones finally found a home with the Seahawks, starting 10 games in Seattle last season. The Seahawks defense improved from Weeks 9-18 when he arrived, jumping to fifth in EPA per play during that stretch after ranking outside the top 20 prior to Week 9. Jones underwent offseason knee surgery to clean up knee issues and is now set to return for the middle of Mike Macdonald’s defense.
