Overview
- The extension totals $40.5 million with $25 million guaranteed and keeps Jones under contract through the 2028 season.
- Baltimore finalized the agreement before a scheduled NFLPA grievance hearing, with agent Jared Fox and team officials meeting to settle the issue.
- The grievance stemmed from a CBA technicality tied to a missed mandatory training-camp reporting date that affected Jones’ accrued-season count.
- Jones has started throughout 2025, logging roughly 67% of defensive snaps with 34 tackles, six tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks in 12 games.
- General manager Eric DeCosta called Jones an ascending player, as the team stabilizes its interior line following Nnamdi Madubuike’s season-ending neck injury and continues in-season roster planning.
