Jones (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. An ankle injury prevented Jones from playing against the Raiders in Week 14, but his ability to practice in full Wednesday puts him on track to play against the Packers on Sunday. Jones' return means Eyioma Uwazurike will revert to a rotational role on the Broncos' defensive line.

Jones (ankle) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game at Las Vegas, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. Jones will miss his first game of the season in Week 14 as he nurses an ankle injury that held him out of practice all week. In his absence, Eyioma Uwazurike could see extra work on the defensive line against the pass-happy Raiders.

Jones (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. Jones suffered a shoulder injury Sunday night against Washington that caused him to miss the end of the overtime win, and he's now listed with an ankle issue. He'll probably need to return to practice in some capacity by the end of Friday in order to be able to play against Las Vegas on Sunday. Should Jones miss that matchup, Eyioma Uwazurike could see an uptick in defensive snaps.

Jones and the Broncos agreed on a three-year contract Sunday, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports. Jones is coming off a 2024 campaign in which he compiled 42 total tackles (21 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding a fumble recovery and three passes defensed over the Broncos' 17 regular-season games. The 30-year-old now will stick around Denver for a few more years, likely operating as its primary nose tackle again in 2025.

Jones (finger) has no injury designation ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Chargers, Susanna Weir of the Broncos' official site reports. Jones upgraded from a limited practice session Tuesday to a full workload Wednesday, suggesting that he's moved past his finger injury in time to play Thursday night. The 29-year-old has recorded 36 total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, and two passes defended over 14 appearances this season. He's expected to serve as the Broncos' top nose tackle in the Week 16 divisional matchup.
