Dolphins Placing S Brandon Jones On IR

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel announced Monday that S Brandon Jones is going to be placed on injured reserve. 

McDaniel didn’t rule out Jones returning this year, but it also doesn’t sound likely, per Adam Beasley. 

Jones will miss at least the next four games while on injured reserve before the team can designate him to return.

Jones, 24, is a former third-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2020. He’s currently in the third year of his four-year rookie contract and set to earn base salaries of $1 million and $1.3 million over the next two years.

In 2022, Jones has appeared in seven games for the Dolphins and recorded 49 tackles, a forced fumble and two pass defenses.
