Moving on to Jacksonville
The Jaguars and Jones agreed to a three-year contract Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: This marks the second wide receiver to ink a deal with Jacksonville to open free agency after Christian Kirk landed a massive four-year deal earlier Monday. A second-round pick of the Bills back in 2017, Jones joins the third organization of his career, coming off a 47-546-1 line on 70 targets with the Raiders last season. He'll likely vie with Laviska Shenault for the No. 3 WR spot behind Kirk and Marvin Jones.

Scores in playoff loss
Jones caught five passes for 61 yards and one touchdown on eight targets against Cincinnati on Saturday.
Analysis: It's another encouraging entry in what's been an impressive breakout season for Jones. After he played sparingly in the first seven weeks, the Raiders upped Jones' workload and usage following the Week 8 bye, from which point he saw 71 targets in the next 11 games, including this playoff game. Jones is a 2017 second-round pick who dominated at the collegiate level and has 4.45 speed, so the way he played in 2021 is more in line with what his career expectations were all along.

Targeted eight times in OT victory
Jones caught five of eight targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 35-32 overtime win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Jones finished the regular season with 47 receptions for 546 yards and a touchdown on 70 targets in 17 contests, enjoying his best receiving totals since a 2018 campaign with the Bills that included 56 catches and seven scores. The 26-year-old saw his role within the Raiders' aerial attack expand against the Cowboys in Week 12 when he caught more than two passes in a single game for the first time all season, and Jones ultimately averaged 7.7 targets per tilt over the team's final seven games.…read more

Remains heavily involved
Jones recorded eight receptions on 10 targets for 120 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Jones maintained a strong role in the Raiders offense, tallying at least five receptions for the fifth time in his last six games. He also displayed some big-play ability that was lacking in past performances, recording long gains of 42, 26 and 13 yards to surpass 100 receiving yards in a game for the first time in his career. Though he hasn't displayed much potential for big performances, Jones has developed a rapport with quarterback Derek Carr and will likely remain heavily involved in the…read more

Six grabs in Sunday's win
Jones caught six of eight targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: He was Derek Carr's favorite option on the afternoon, leading the Raiders in receptions and targets, although Foster Moreau led the team in yards and Hunter Renfrow hauled in Carr's only TD. Jones has put together a 25-222-0 line on 36 targets over the last five games, giving him some deep-league PPR value heading into a Week 17 clash with the Colts.

Ready to take on Denver
Jones (toe) was cleared from the injury report Friday and will play in Sunday's game against Denver.
Analysis: Jones is coming off season highs for catches (six), yards (67) and targets (nine) in last week's 16-14 win over Cleveland. He hasn't scored a TD since Week 1 and hasn't come close to a 100-yard game, but he does have four in a row with five or more targets and three or more catches.

Upgrades to limited practice
Jones (toe) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday, George Stoia of The Denver Gazette reports.
Analysis: This is a step in the right direction for Jones, who sat out Wednesday's walkthrough due to this injury. If Jones is able to upgrade to full participation Friday, the starting wide receiver could avoid Friday's injury report altogether ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Sits out Wednesday
Jones didn't participate at Wednesday's walkthrough practice due to a toe injury.
Analysis: Jones presumably picked up the injury during Monday's win over the Browns while catching six of nine targets for 67 yards. The 26-year-old has played a significant role in the Raiders' receiving corps since the Week 8 bye, and he may need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have a chance of suiting up this weekend versus Denver.

Sixth grab sets up winning FG
Jones caught six of nine targets for 67 yards in Monday's 16-14 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Jones tied Foster Moreau for the team lead in targets and bested Moreau by two receiving yards to pace the Raiders. His most important catch was his last one, as Jones' 15-yard snag set up Daniel Carlson's game-winning 48-yard field goal as time expired. Jones has stepped up recently for the receiver-starved Raiders -- he has 19 catches in his last four games, after having just nine all season before this strong stretch.

Raiders-Browns moved to Monday
Jones and the Raiders will no longer play the Browns on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.
Analysis: Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Assuming the Week 15 game is played Monday as planned, Jones and Las Vegas will face a quick turnaround for the Week 16 contest versus the Broncos, which is still expected to be played Sunday, Dec. 26 as scheduled.

Does little with seven targets
Jones recorded five receptions on seven targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Jones finished second on the team with seven targets, behind only Hunter Renfrow. Despite converting a high rate of his targets into receptions, Jones was limited to only 3.6 yards per target to turn in a disappointing performance. Jones has now seen at least five targets in three consecutive games, though he's topped 50 yards only once in that span and has not found the end zone since Week 1.

Three catches against Washington
Jones caught three of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 17-15 loss to Washington.
Analysis: He and Bryan Edwards put up nearly identical numbers, but both took a back seat to another 100-yard performance by Hunter Renfrow. Jones has seen an uptick in volume the last two weeks, posting an 8-80-0 line on 12 targets as the Raiders scramble to plug the holes in their passing game, and his new role gives him some modest upside in Week 14 against Kansas City.

Seven targets in overtime win
Jones caught five of seven targets for 59 yards in the Raiders' 36-33 overtime victory over Dallas on Thanksgiving Day.
Analysis: Jones hadn't caught more than one pass in a single contest since Week 1, but his five receptions against the Cowboys were a personal best for his time with the Raiders. Despite the recent addition of DeSean Jackson, Jones continues to see a significant offensive snap share alongside Bryan Edwards and Hunter Renfrow. Meanwhile, tight end Darren Waller (knee) is considered week-to-week, potentially opening up additional target opportunities for the aforementioned receiving corps versus Washington…read more

Targeted twice Sunday
Jones caught one of two targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Jones' offensive snap share surpassed the 70-percent mark for a third straight week, but he was held without a reception until the Raiders' penultimate drive of the game. On a more positive note, each of Jones' last four catches have gone for 20 or more yards. However, Jones could see his opportunities diminish soon if newcomer DeSean Jackson becomes more involved in the offense.

Posts another one-catch performance
Jones caught one of three targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 41-14 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Jones paced the Raiders' wide receiver corps in offensive snap share for a second straight week, but the ample playing time has translated into just two total receptions for 44 yards on seven targets. The newly acquired DeSean Jackson coughed up the ball after hauling in a 38-yard pass, but he was otherwise relatively uninvolved in his Las Vegas debut. Nonetheless, Jackson's ability to stretch the field figures to earn him more opportunities as he settles into the offense, which probably…read more

Held to one catch
Jones recorded one reception on four targets or 20 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Jones was one of three Raiders pass catchers to rack up four targets, though he wasn't efficient in his performance. His only catch came midway through the third quarter, and it help set up a field goal for the team. It was only his third game with multiple targets this season, and the anticipated addition of DeSean Jackson may cut into his ability to continue to see volume moving forward.

Steps into starting role
The Raiders list Jones as a starting receiver along with Bryan Edwards and Hunter Renfrow on the team's updated Week 9 depth chart, Case Keefer of the Las Vegas Sun reports.
Analysis: Renfrow will serve as the Raiders' top option out of the slot, while Jones joins Edwards as a starter at either perimeter spot. Through the Raiders' first seven games, Jones has held a bit role in the passing attack, as he's commanded no more than two targets in any contest while stringing together a 6-115-1 receiving line. Jones should be in store for a sizable uptick in snaps if not targets, though he'll still likely remain a lesser priority in the passing game than Renfrow, Edwards and tight…read more

Secures difficult catch in win
Jones caught his only target for 43 yards in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Jones made an impressive 43-yard sideline grab on third and long when the Raiders were trailing by seven points in the first quarter, but he ultimately played less than 15 offensive snaps for a fourth consecutive game. Jones is averaging just one target per game ahead of the team's Week 8 bye.

Makes six-yard grab in loss
Jones caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 20-9 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Jones hauled in a pass for a third straight week, but fellow receivers Henry Ruggs, Bryan Edwards and Hunter Renfrow all logged 50-plus offensive snaps apiece, while Jones saw his snap share dip below 20 percent again. Expect a similar lack of involvement for Jones in Week 6 against the Broncos.

Catches game-winning touchdown
Jones caught two passes for 46 yards, including the game-winning 31-yard touchdown in overtime, during Monday's 33-27 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Jones caught both of his targets and finished fifth on the Raiders in receiving yards as Derek Carr threw for 435 yards on Monday Night Football. While the 26-year-old finished fifth in yards, he was tied with Josh Jacobs for the least amount of targets. Jones' fantasy value remains limited for the 2021 campaign.

Paces pass catchers in win
Jones secured all three targets for 57 yards in the Raiders' 20-7 preseason win over the Seahawks on Saturday night.
Analysis: With the Raiders' top wideout quartet of Henry Ruggs, Bryan Edwards, Hunter Renfrow and John Brown not making an appearance on the stat sheet, Jones led the way in both receptions and receiving yardage on the night. The veteran is facing a tall task in his quest to end up any better than the No. 5 receiver, especially with offseason signee Willie Snead and the promising Keelan Doss also on the roster.

Staying with Las Vegas
The Raiders re-signed Jones on Thursday, Myles Simmons of NBC Pro Football Talk reports.
Analysis: Jones appeared to be on the verge of a potential breakout season after compiling 56 receptions for 652 yards and seven touchdowns for the Bills in 2018. The past two seasons have been underwhelming, however. In a combined 31 games for the Bills (five) and Raiders (26) since the start of 2019, the former East Carolina standout has yielded only 41 catches for 370 yards and one TD.

Jones caught one of two targets for 37 yards during the Raiders' Week 17 finale, finishing up his 2020 campaign with 14 catches (on 19 targets) for 154 yards and one touchdown in 16 games.
Analysis: Jones never got too involved in the Raiders' aerial attack during his second season with the team, despite fellow receiver Tyrell Williams (shoulder) spending the year on injured reserve while rookie Henry Ruggs (concussion) also missed multiple contests. Jones is now slated to become an unrestricted free agent in 2021, though the Raiders will be more focused on re-signing Nelson Agholor.

Jones was not targeted in Saturday's 26-25 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Jones saw his involvement in the Raiders' offense evaporate with fellow receiver Henry Ruggs returning from his one-week absence on the reserve/COVID list.

Logs 53 snaps in elevated role
Jones caught one of two targets for nine yards in Thursday's 30-27 overtime loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Jones' nine-yard reception came in overtime as the Raiders eventually ended their 6:42 drive with a 23-yard field goal. Despite logging 53 offensive snaps with fellow receiver Henry Ruggs sidelined on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Jones' minuscule target share continued as the Raiders also rushed 41 times. Hunter Renfrow has entered the league's concussion protocol, however, so Jones could be in line for more work again in Week 16 against the Dolphins.

Another targetless outing
Jones wasn't targeted in Sunday's 16-6 win over the Browns.
Analysis: On a windy day in Cleveland, Derek Carr attempted just 24 passes, his first game this season with fewer than 40 passing attempts. He still managed to disperse the ball to nine different players, but Jones was left out of the mix and played just 10 offensive snaps. Jones is clearly just a depth wideout at this point, and his role could diminish further once rookie third-rounder Bryan Edwards (ankle) is back in the fold.

Analysis: Jones was relatively uninvolved despite fellow receiver Bryan Edwards' (ankle/foot) continued absence, while Nelson Agholor broke out for 107 yards and a touchdown on five catches across from Henry Ruggs.

Jones caught his only target for two yards in Sunday's 40-32 win over the Chiefs.
Analysis: Jones, who logged a season-high 66 offensive snaps Week 4 against the Bills, saw his role severely reduced Sunday due to Henry Ruggs' (knee) return from a two-game absence. The upcoming bye week lends additional opportunity for receiver Bryan Edwards (ankle/foot) to get healthy as well, which would further downgrade Jones' outlook for a Week 7 tilt against the Buccaneers.

Plays 66 snaps in loss
Jones caught four of six targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Jones averaged a mundane 5.3 yards per target, but he earned the start at wide receiver on the outside across from Nelson Agholor after rookies Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) and Bryan Edwards (ankle) were ruled out. Tight end Darren Waller and slot man Hunter Renfrow were the only Raiders to earn more targets than Jones on Sunday, and the latter could be on tap for additional work Week 5 against the Chiefs if Ruggs and Edwards remain sidelined.

Analysis: The Raiders will be without at least one starting wideout Sunday, with Bryan Edwards (ankle) ruled out, and Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) also is listed as doubtful. Jones would stand to start in three-wide sets if Edwards and Ruggs can't go, though both Hunter Renfrow and Nelson Agholor remain ahead of him on the depth chart. Through three games this season, Jones has secured all four of his targets for 47 yards and a touchdown.

Elevating to bigger role
Jones could play a key role in the Raiders' offense this season, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With Tyrell Williams (shoulder) landing on reserve/injured earlier this week, Jones could find himself in a larger role this season. "Could not be more proud of Nelson Agholor and Zay Jones," Raiders GM Mike Mayock said when asked about the team's wideout depth. The Raiders acquired the 2017 second-rounder from the Bills last October and he went on to record 20 receptions for 147 yards across 10 games for the Silver and Black.

Jones may lose his roster spot, ESPN.com's Paul Gutierrez reports.
Analysis: Tyrell Williams, Henry Ruggs, Hunter Renfrow and Bryan Edwards are locks, presumably leaving Jones to compete with Nelson Agholor and a slew of young players for one or two jobs. Early reports seem to favor Agholor as the veteran pick, and it would be cheaper for the Raiders to keep a late-round pick or an undrafted player over Jones for the sixth and final spot (if one even exists).

Analysis: Jones collected just 20 receptions for 147 yards on 27 targets in his 10-game stint with the Raiders after a midseason transition from Buffalo, despite logging a bountiful 466 offensive snaps.

Contained to 14 yards
Jones caught three passes on as many targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Jones logged less than 40 offensive snaps for the first time since Week 10 as the return of fellow receiver Hunter Renfrow (rib) somewhat cut into the former's playing time.

Analysis: Hunter Renfrow (ribs) was inactive, but Jones was targeted on just two of Derek Carr's 36 passes.

Jones caught one of three targets for five yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Jones once again failed to capitalize on significant playing time with Hunter Renfrow (ribs) still sidelined, and the former didn't even draw the start at the No. 2 receiver spot across from Tyrell Williams, as recent practice squad promotion Rico Gafford earned the honor. Jones has not caught more than three passes in a single contest this season, and Renfrow is trending toward a Week 15 return against the Jaguars.

Jones caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 40-9 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Jones saw no more than three targets for the fourth consecutive contest, despite what should have been a pass-happy game flow for the Raiders given they fell behind 21-0 heading into the half. Jones' snap count -- he saw action on 70 percent of the offensive plays in Week 13 -- figures to remain favorable in Week 14 against the Titans with Hunter Renfrow likely still sidelined by a rib injury, but the former hasn't flashed much upside to this point.

Jones caught all three of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Jones' playing time isn't much of a concern with at least 39 offensive snaps logged throughout the Raiders' past three games, but he's failed to eclipse 27 receiving yards in a single contest since joining the Silver and Black. Expect the offense to lean on rookie running back Josh Jacobs again in Week 12 against the Jets.

Collects just one reception Thursday
Jones caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 26-24 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: All three of the Raiders' active running backs caught more passes than Jones on Thursday night, so it wasn't exactly a memorable performance for the former Buffalo Bill. Jones will look to bounce back against a struggling Bengals squad in Week 11, and there's a chance they'll still be without starting cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick (knee).

Totals 24 yards in win
Jones caught three of his four targets for 21 yards and rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Jones saw 66 snaps on offense -- three times more than in his Raiders debut a week prior -- but didn't see many more opportunities, as Hunter Renfrow starred in the passing game. The 24-year-old likely will remain a fringe option in a Week 10 matchup with the Chargers.
