Elevated for Week 14
The Seahawks elevated Jones from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones will be elevated for the second consecutive week after playing 17 special teams snaps for the Seahawks in their Week 13 win over the Vikings. The running back was not a participant in the Seahawks offense, and with Kenneth Walker, Zach Charbonnet, and Cam Akers all healthy, that is unlikely to change this Sunday. Jones can be elevated one more time before he would have to be officially signed to the active roster.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Jones has done very little on offense since the Bears selected him in the third round of the 2022 Draft. As a rookie, the Tennessee product posted 107 yards as a receiver and 103 yards on the ground. However, the receiver took a step back in 2023, when he was limited to 71 yards from scrimmage. Jones is likely to remain a depth option this season, with the 27-year-old likely to make his greatest contribution to the team be on special teams, where he has been a kick returner since joining the team.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Impresses as RB in preseason finale
Jones, who's been increasingly logging more time at running back, made a strong case for the 53-man roster with his performance in Thursday night's preseason finale against the Chiefs, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The converted receiver carried 13 times for 111 yards and a touchdown while adding two receptions for 11 yards, with the highlight of his night a 39-yard touchdown run. Jones had also recorded six carries for 34 yards in Chicago's second preseason contest, but he might be hard-pressed to garner anything more than a No. 4 spot on the positional depth chart if neither Roschon Johnson nor Khalil Herbert are moved off the roster prior to final cuts.
