The Saints designated Jones (ankle) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Along with Jones, the Saints had top back Alvin Kamara back in practice Wednesday after Kamara missed a Week 10 loss to Tennessee with a minor knee sprain. Mark Ingram filled in and took on a a three-down role this past Sunday, but there's still some chance for Jones to be the No. 2 back once he's healthy. Jones last played in Week 4, taking 23 touches for 87 yards over the first four games of the season.
