Cardinals’ Zay Jones Out for Season With Torn Achilles, Headed to IR

Arizona will place the veteran on injured reserve, with surgery expected per coach Jonathan Gannon.

Overview

  • The wideout tore his left Achilles late in the second quarter on a second-and-3 end-zone target from Jacoby Brissett during a 44-22 loss to the Seahawks.
  • Jones grabbed his lower left leg, was carted off, and the team confirmed the season-ending diagnosis on Monday.
  • He ends 2025 with 12 receptions for 183 yards in eight appearances and no touchdowns.
  • With Jones sidelined, Greg Dortch and Xavier Weaver are in line for more snaps as Arizona adjusts its receiver rotation.
  • Gannon also reported additional injuries, including Simi Fehoko’s arm issue that will cost him time, with broader status updates expected Wednesday.
