Jones Leaves Patriots After Tumultuous Season, Joins Raiders Amidst Their Interim Coaching Period
- Jack Jones, former Patriots cornerback, has been claimed off waivers by the Raiders.
- Jones' role with the Patriots had diminished over the past two games, and he was waived by the team on Monday.
- Jones was arrested in June for bringing guns into the airport, but the charges were dropped in September after he agreed to serve one year of pre-trial probation and 48 hours of community service.
- Jones had been a backup for the past four games after spending the first six games of the season on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury.
- The Patriots are currently 2-8 and in last place in the AFC.
