Miami Dolphins Sign Veteran CB Jack Jones Amid Secondary Injuries

The Miami Dolphins have signed veteran cornerback Jack Jones to bolster their secondary following injuries to Artie Burns and the trade of Jalen Ramsey. Jones, 27, previously played for the New England Patriots and Las Vegas Raiders, where he started 16 games in 2024, recording 69 tackles, three interceptions (including a pick-six), and 15 pass breakups. Despite his playmaking ability, including four defensive touchdowns since 2022, Jones has struggled with coverage consistency, allowing some big plays. With the Dolphins' cornerback group already featuring Kader Kohou, Cam Smith, Storm Duck, and rookie Jason Marshall, Jones is expected to compete for a starting job and bring veteran leadership under the new defensive scheme. This signing addresses Miami's urgent need for experienced secondary players as they aim to strengthen their defense for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, Broncos defensive lineman D.J. Jones has solidified his role with Denver, earning a contract extension through 2028 after consistent performance since joining the team in 2022.
