$Signed a three-year, $39 million contract with the Broncos in March of 2025.
Logs 3.0 sacks in 2025
DTDenver Broncos
February 8, 2026
Jones recorded 39 tackles (21 solo), including 3.0 sacks and one pass defensed across 16 regular-season games with Denver in 2025.
ANALYSIS
Jones' 3.0 sacks this season matched a career high set back in 2020 as a member of the 49ers. The veteran continued to operate as the Broncos' No. 1 nose tackle in 2025, as Denver's defense was once again one of the league's best. Under contract for at least the next two seasons, the 31-year-old Jones should continue to be a strong veteran presence in the Broncos' formidable defensive front in 2026, though fellow defensive lineman Eyioma Uwazurike could push for even more playing time at nose tackle after a solid season of his own in 2025.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
2020
Jones will enter the eighth year of his NFL career in 2024, playing out the final season of his three-year deal with the Broncos. The veteran nose tackle was an impactful playmaker for Denver's defense last season, recording 46 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks. Additionally, his three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries were both career highs. Jones should continue to be a key contributor for the Broncos' defense, as the 29-year-old will head into free agency in 2025.
Jones finished the 2022 season with 34 total tackles, two sacks and six passes defended in 15 games. The veteran nose tackle will enter his second year with Denver and should continue to make an impact on the Broncos' strong defensive line.
Jones signed a three-year, $30 million contract with Denver this offseason, after spending the first five years of his career with the 49ers. Coming off a career year, the 27-year-old joins a formidable defense and should make an immediate impact on the defensive line, especially as a run stuffer.
Jones enters the 2020 season with a clean bill of health after landing on IR with an ankle injury last December. The 25-year-old didn't post eye-popping numbers in his 11 games (19 tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble), but that was mainly due to a crowded and talented defensive line. With DeForest Buckner being dealt to the Colts, Jones is a legitimate breakout candidate as a projected starter on the interior line for a fearsome pass rush.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be in line for extension
DTDenver Broncos
January 14, 2025
The Broncos may attempt to sign Jones to an extension this offseason, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN suggests.
ANALYSIS
The Broncos has been proactive in locking up core players such as Patrick Surtain and Garrett Bolles, and Jones could be next. While the 49ers originally drafted the defensive tackle, he has spent the last three years in Denver and has maintained a key role as a run stuffer. He is set to hit free agency this offseason and should be in line for another multi-year deal.
