Sidney Jones IV News
Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Sidney Jones IV finished the team's offseason workouts with a nice showing at mandatory minicamp. He was in position to intercept a pass intended for wide receiver Tee Higgins in a 7-on-7 period, which is a great sign for a Bengals secondary that signed Jones for veteran depth behind cornerbacks Chidobe Awuzie, Cam Taylor-Britt and Mike Hilton. The 27-year-old is with his fifth different team in seven NFL seasons after signing a one-year deal with the Bengals back in March. He played in only 10 games last year with the Las Vegas Raiders and Seattle Seahawks and finished with 12 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defensed.
Free-agent cornerback Sidney Jones IV is expected to sign with the Raiders. Jones, who was recently released by the Seahawks, has accumulated 147 total tackles, 29 passes defensed, and four interceptions since being drafted in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft. With Vegas allowing 255 passing yards per game in 2022-23, the team could certainly use all the help it can get. With that said, it's unknown how much work Jones will receive for his new team early on, so a potential fantasy impact may not be immediate.
After attempting to trade cornerback Sidney Jones at the deadline on Tuesday, the Seattle Seahawks waived him. Jones, a second-round pick by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2017 out of the University of Washington, will hit the open market after playing in just three games in his second season in Seattle. He played just 45 defensive snaps in those three contests and had five tackles (four solo). The 26-year-old also missed the Week 8 win over the New York Giants due to a groin injury, so he'll need to prove his health in order to latch on with another club. Jones had a career-high 66 tackles (45 solo) and 10 passes defensed in 16 games (11 starts) in his first year with the Seahawks in 2021.
