Overview

• Jones delivered 342 yards and two touchdowns in a 26-23 overtime win over the Rams on Oct. 2, improving to 3-0 in his starts as San Francisco moved to 4-1.
• He played through a braced knee, severe cramping and visible distress, yet finished the game without a turnover, drawing praise from Kyle Shanahan and teammates.
• Jones told teammates he saw a body floating near the team hotel in Marina del Rey that morning, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department says the death remains under investigation.
• Players saw investigators and a coroner’s van at the marina before departing for SoFi Stadium, according to reporting attributed to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.
• Media have floated trade ideas involving Jones — including swaps for Tyrod Taylor or edge rusher Trey Hendrickson — but reporting indicates the 49ers value him as insurance while Brock Purdy is week-to-week.
