After failing to trade veteran cornerback Jack Jones, the Las Vegas Raiders decided to waive him on Monday. He started 16 games for the team last season and had a team-high three interceptions. However, he was a favorite of former head coach Antonio Pierce but had no relationship with Pete Carroll. The team decided to go in a different direction and saved $3.4 million in salary cap space. Since he was still on his rookie contract, Jones was subject to waivers. Every team had a chance to pick him up at $3.4 million for next season but the cornerback got some bad news. According to the NFL’s transaction wire on Tuesday, not a single team put in a claim for Jones. Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean there aren’t any teams interested in signing him but it does mean nobody wants to pay him $3.4 million this season. That’s not a steep price for a starting cornerback but Jones’ value must’ve taken a hit. If he plays in 2025, it will likely be closer to the league minimum. That’s a blow for a cornerback who once looked like he’d have a breakout year in 2024. Jones has the talent to be an impact player but he needs to land with the right team.
