Maintains starting role in defense Jones registered one goal on 10 shots (seven on target) and five assists on 24 chances created in 27 appearances (26 starts) this season. Impact Jones spent yet another year starting on the flanks of the defense for New England, marking his third straight season with 26 or more starts. He was decent in the defense but was nowhere near reaching a career-high in any category, notching 33 interceptions, 42 tackles and 48 clearances. However, he was one of the better-attacking defenders in the league once again, registering six goal contributions to give him 20 over the past three campaigns. He is still under contract for one more year before facing a club option and should continue as a regular starter.
