Abry Jones: Placed on reserve/retired list
Jones was placed on the reserve/retired list Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Jones signed a contract with the Titans in early June after spending the first eight seasons of his career in Jacksonville, but it appears as though he'll hang up his cleats ahead of training camp. The 29-year-old appeared in 105 games with the Jaguars and totaled 196 tackles (129 solo), including 9.5 sacks, along with 12 pass defensed, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.

Titans' Abry Jones: Inks deal Thursday
Jones (ankle) signed a contract with the Titans on Thursday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.
Jones played four games with the Jaguars before being shifted to injured reserve for the remainder of the season, but as evidenced by this news, he appears back to full health. The Georgia product could add a veteran presence to the defensive line, as he's racked up 8.5 sacks in his eight-year NFL career. Daylon Mack was cut by the Titans on Thursday in order to make room for Jones.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Shut down for season
Jones (ankle) will stay on injured reserve for the rest of the season, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Jones returned to practice three weeks ago, but he's still unable to push off with his ankle and will thus be shut down for the rest of the year. The 29-year-old will focus on recovering for the 2021 season. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent in March.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Pivots to injured reserve
The Jaguars placed Jones (ankle) on IR on Thursday.
Jones sat out Jacksonville's Week 6 loss to the Lions due to his ankle injury, and the Jaguars have now deemed the issue severe enough that he'll have to sit out at least the next three games. As long as Jones remains sidelined, Doug Costin will stand to continue handling increased defensive snaps.

Jones (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against Detroit, Michael DiRocco of ESPN reports.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Questionable for Week 6
Jones (ankle/hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Detroit, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
The 29-year-old was added to Thursday's injury report as a non-participant, and his status for Sunday's contest remains in question due to the ankle and hamstring issues. Jones has eight tackles and is playing about half of Jacksonville's defensive snaps through five games. Doug Costin figures to see increased reps should Jones be unable to play Week 6.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Downgraded Thursday
Jones (ankle) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.
After Jones was limited during Wednesday's session, the Georgia product appears to be heading in the wrong direction ahead of Week 6's game against Detroit. Jones will have another shot to suit up in Friday's practice, but if he's forced to miss Sunday's game, look for DaVon Hamilton and Doug Costin to see an uptick in snaps at defensive tackle.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Draws 15 starts
Jones had 31 tackles (15 solo) and two sacks in 16 games this season.
The 28-year-old took over the starting job at defensive tackle down the stretch last season, and he remained in that role for the 2019 campaign and played a career-high 565 defensive snaps. Jones' $4 million salary for 2020 wouldn't count against the cap if he's released, but the Jaguars may be hesitant to make such move with fellow tackle Marcell Dareus (abdomen) already likely to be let go, given his $22.5 million cap hit.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Falls ill Sunday
Jones (illness) is questionable to play in Sunday's game against the Colts.
Jones had been healthy leading up the game but reported to the stadium feeling sick, thus the downgrade. It's unclear if Jones will be healthy in time for kickoff, but if he can't go, Dontavius Russell would be in line to see the start at defensive tackle.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Suiting up Sunday
Jones (illness) is officially active for Sunday's game versus Indianapolis.
Jones was added to the injury report Sunday after arriving at the stadium with an illness, but it won't prevent him from playing in the season finale. The 28-year-old should play his usual defensive workload of about 40 snaps, though it's possible he could be somewhat limited due to the illness.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Adds to sack total
Jones had four assisted tackles and a half-sack in Sunday's win against the Jets.

Jaguars' Abry Jones: Finishes 2018 with 29 tackles
Jones had 29 tackles (21 solo) and one sack in 15 games this season.
Jones started six of the final seven games of the season, as he eventually overtook Malik Jackson for a starting spot at defensive tackle. Jackson, Marcell Dareus, Eli Ankou and Jones are all under contract for next season. However, the Jaguars are in dire need of salary relief, considering Jackson and Dareus each carry cap hits exceeding $10 million. Therefore, it's likely at least one of the two is released.
