The Seahawks placed Jones (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones departed Sunday's win over the Rams with a hamstring injury and has since been placed on injured reserve, meaning he'll now be forced to sit out of Seattle's next four matchups at minimmum. Ryan Neal (knee), Quandre Diggs and Johnathan Abram are currently in line to operate as the Seahawks' top safety options.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2019
2018
2017
A second-round pick in 2017, Jones showed his upside early in his rookie season, tallying 12 tackles and two sacks in just his third career game. He has struggled to come close to that output since, averaging just 4.2 tackles in his last 26 games. The Packers signed fellow safety Adrian Amos to a multi-year contract during the offseason and spent a first-round pick on another safety, Darnell Savage, so Jones remains behind the eight ball in his third season. His current role would provide little fantasy value, so it's not too surprising that Jones skipped OTAs in May after reportedly requesting a trade.
That the Packers finished the draft without selecting a safety seemingly locks Jones into a three-down role, in which case a big season could be on the horizon. Originally groomed as a nickel-specific sort of rover position in addition to strong safety, the Packers could see plenty of snaps with all of Jones, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and Kentrell Brice on the field at once. With 71 tackles on 735 snaps last year, Jones would appear to be a triple-digit threat with a bit of luck.
Jones not only gives defensive coordinator Dom Capers a new weapon to deploy, but also bolsters the Packers' depth at safety, which is one of the best units in the NFL. While Jones will be listed as a safety, he has received plenty of praise for his blitzing ability, which should allow him to often play close to the line of scrimmage, a preferred spot to rack up the gold known as tackles in many IDP formats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pursued by former rivals
SFree Agent
September 5, 2019
Jones is set to visit the Vikings on Friday and will also meet with the Lions sometime next week, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones was a second-round pick by the Packers in 2017, but started only 12 games with the team across two seasons. Still, he's just 24-years-old and boasts above-average athleticism in terms of both speed and burst. While the Vikings have dependable starters along the last line of their defense, it's certainly possible Jones catches on with a former division rival.
