Henderson, Nev. – Las Vegas Reders confirmed the ESPN on Sunday after trying to trade cornerback jack Jones.
Reders will move beyond Jones to save $ 3.4 million in salary cap space.
Jones played in 24 matches with the reders, as the franchise claimed to remove them from Wavers after releasing from New England Patriots in 2023, where they played only one full session.
In 2024, Jones started 16 games and passed the total career best, pass defended (16) and interception (3) in Tackle (69). But Jones gave a passer -by rating 108.9 on 88 goals as 698 yards, 9 touchdown and nearest protector.
After the departure of Jones and Nat Hobbes, who joined the Green Bay Packers on a four -year deal, the Reders Cornerback Room includes Jacorian Bennett, the fourth -round pick Decamarian Richardson, MJ Devonshire, Q Blue Kelly, Eric Stokes and Darne Holms.
Bennett, Stokes and Richardson mostly play out, and the Holmes team has a lonely cornerback. At the annual league meeting, General Manager John Sitech said the team had to find out the nickel location.
“Nickel Peat (Carol) and (Defense of Defense Patrick Graham) is an important place in defense,” Spitech said. “… We emphasize the importance of that situation in our defense. They are asked to do a lot, and it can be difficult to find them.”
Expect the reders to use this month’s draft to improve its depth in the corner. Las Vegas could target Michigan Cornerback Will Johnson in the first round. Meanwhile, players such as Maxwell Hourstone (Kentki) and Tray Amos (Ole Miss) can be a possible day 2 pics.
The news of the release of Jones was first reported by NFL Network.
