Overview
- Baltimore announced the deal Thursday, with reports placing the value at $40.5 million and $25 million guaranteed.
- Talks concluded before a scheduled grievance hearing, making the dispute over his free-agent classification irrelevant.
- Jones, 26, has 34 tackles, six tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks in 12 games this season while logging 67% of defensive snaps.
- The move steadies the defensive interior as All-Pro Nnamdi Madubuike remains on injured reserve with a neck injury and is not expected back this season.
- The extension continues the Ravens’ approach of retaining homegrown talent, following last week’s new deal for tight end Mark Andrews.
