BYRON JONES NEWS

Won't be available Week 5 Jones (ankle) won't be designated to return from injured reserve ahead of Week 5, per Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com.

Impact Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the cornerback's recovery from offseason ankle surgery is "not progressing as fast as we'd hoped." Jones will miss a fifth consecutive contest to start the season, and it's unclear when he'll return to practice. In his prolonged absence, expect Nik Needham and Kader Kohou to continue garnering increased roles in Miami's secondary.

Week 5 return still uncertain Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Miami won't give an update regarding Jones' (ankle) availability for Sunday's game at the Jets until midweek, David Furones of the South Florid...

Impact Jones is eligible to return from the Dolphins' reserve/PUP list this week, but it sounds like there's a possibility that he'll need to sit out at least one more game to recover from the ankle surgery he underwent back in March. With Xavien Howard (groin) also questionable for Sunday, Nik Needham and Kader Kohou could be asked to take a major step up against Corey Davis, Garrett Wilson, and Elijah Moore in Week 5.

Set for evaluation Jones (ankle) will be evaluated when the Dolphins return to Miami on Monday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Head coach Mike McDaniel said Friday that Jones is set for an evaluation when the Dolphins return to their facilities early next week. The cornerback has missed the first four games of the season while on the reserve/PUP list, but he's eligible to return as soon as Week 5 against the Jets. An update on his status will likely come Monday after his evaluation.

Aiming for Week 1 return Jones (ankle) is "trying to get back for Week 1," head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Jones was placed on the active/PUP list last Friday, and underwent surgery in March to address a lingering ankle issue. It was reported then that he would be ready for training camp, but his recovery appears to be going slower than originally anticipated. Once healthy, Jones should play a prominent role in the Dolphins secondary as an every down corner.

Placed on active/PUP list The Dolphins placed Jones (ankle) on the active/PUP list Friday.

Impact Jones underwent offseason surgery to repair a lingering issue in his left ankle, and the initial thought was that he'd be ready for training camp. However, the Dolphins will opt to be cautious with the 2015 first-round pick and keep him sidelined to start camp. Jones is eligible to be removed from the list at any time before the final roster cutdown, but if he isn't healthy by the start of the regular season, he'll be forced to miss at least the first four games of the campaign.

Impact Jones once again served as a pillar of Miami's secondary in 2021 across from Xavien Howard, though his quality of play doesn't usually translate to favorable IDP stats. The Dolphins have a potential "out" in the 29-year-old's contract this offseason that would result in $4.2 million in dead cap money, but the team could instead attempt to explore a restructured deal.
