Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports that Dolphins S Reshad Jones isn’t happy with his current contract and plans to hold out of offseason activities unless an extension is agreed to.
- According to Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald, Jones is looking for a contract that would pay between $10 million and $11 million annually and put him in similar company as Eric Berry and Earl Thomas.
Without Jones in camp, the Dolphins are left with Shamiel Gary, Isa Abdul-Quddus, Walt Aikens, and Michael Thomas at the safety position.
Jones, 28, is a former fifth-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2010. He later signed a five-year, $30.81 million contract that included $15 million guaranteed with the Dolphins back in 2013.
Jones still has another two years remaining on his current deal and stands to make base salaries of $7.225 million and $7.06 million over the next two years.
In 2015, Jones appeared in all 16 games and recorded 136 tackles, two sacks, five interceptions with two being returned for touchdowns, a fumble recovery and 10 pass defenses. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 13 safety out of 89 qualifying players.
