The Las Vegas Raiders will move on from one of their veterans.
It seems like Jack Jones will no longer be a part of the organization.
According to a report by NFL insider Ari Meirov, they will try to trade the veteran CB, but they will release him if they cannot find a trade suitor.

Truth be told, this is somewhat surprising, at least from a football perspective.
He was very solid when he arrived midway through the 2023 season after some time with the New England Patriots.
Even though he regressed last season, he still played a big role in the defense.
He played in all 17 games and made 16 starts for Antonio Pierce’s team, logging a career-high 69 combined tackles and 16 passes defensed.
Nevertheless, with some off-the-field issues, perhaps the Raiders think he’s not worth the headache.
The Patriots also benched him for missing curfew and some character issues, and they eventually chose to release him.
All things considered, there aren’t that many incentives to trade for him if he’s going to become a free agent nonetheless, but given that he’s owed just $3.4 million next season and is in the final year of his rookie deal, there might be some interest in the 27-year-old defensive back.
