2023 Fantasy Outlook
Heading into his sixth year in the NFL and second with the Bears, Jones averaged 42.2 snaps on defense per game as the lead tackle in Chicago's D-line rotation. As a result, he averaged nearly 3.1 tackles weekly, which was the second-highest mark of his career. He also notched three sacks and a fumble recovery in 17 contests. Jones will be operating on an expiring contract in 2023 and should retain a similar role to what he had last year. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Jones played his first four seasons with the Chargers before coming over to Chicago. Primarily used as a run stuffer, he posted between 30 and 37 tackles in each of the last three years. He also had a career high three sacks last year. In IDP leagues that start defensive tackles, he should maintain similar production as he'll have the same type of role in Chicago that he had with the Chargers.
A rotational depth lineman the past two seasons, Jones could take on an extended role in base 3-4 sets under Brandon Staley's new defensive scheme.
