Patriots' Marcus Jones: Logs two tackles Week 11
Jones posted two tackles during the Patriots' 27-14 win over the Jets on Thursday.
Jones was cleared to play after working through an elbow injury leading up to Thursday's game, though he tied a season low in both tackles and defensive snaps (38). The 2022 third-rounder is up to 45 tackles (31 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and nine pass defenses (two interceptions) through 11 regular-season games.

Patriots' Marcus Jones: Dealing with elbow injury
Jones (elbow) was a limited participant in Monday's walkthrough practice.
Jones logged four tackles (two solo) during the Patriots' 28-23 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday, but he appears to have come out of that game with an elbow injury. With the Patriots playing the Jets on Thursday, the third-year corner will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation for Week 11.

Patriots' Marcus Jones: Nets three-year extension
The Patriots signed Jones to a three-year contract extension Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Jones' deal contains $36 million in new money and ties him to New England through the 2028 season. A first-team All-Pro selection as a punt returner in 2022, Jones has continued to shine on special teams this season, most notably returning a punt 87 yards for a touchdown in a Week 4 win over the Panthers. However, it's on the defensive end where Jones has emerged as an indispensable piece in 2025 after having previously worked in more of a part-time role in the secondary. Through eight games, Jones has excelled as New England's top slot corner, amassing 36 tackles, nine pass breakups, two interceptions and a sack.

Jones finished with five tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 42-13 win over Carolina. He added 167 yards and a touchdown on three punt returns.
Jones tied his season-high mark in tackles, but where he really shined was as a punt returner. The fourth-year cornerback returned a punt 87 yards for a score in the first quarter and also had a 61-yard return in the second period before capping his big day with a 19-yard return in the third. The TD was his second punt-return score of his career.

Patriots' Marcus Jones: Won't play against Bolts
Jones (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Chargers, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.
Jones will be sidelined for a second straight game due to a hip injury he likely picked up against the Cardinals in Week 15.
