The Bengals waived Jones during Sunday's cut-down day. The wide receiver cleared waivers and will now move to New York to begin the regular season. Jones competed to be the Bengals' primary return specialist but lost out on the job to Ke'Shawn Williams and Samaje Perine. The 27-year-old will now provide additional depth to the Giants from the practice squad.
RotoWire via ESPN - The Bengals waived Jones on Sunday, Ian Rapoport of ESPN and NFL Network reports.
Jones was competing to serve as the team's primary return specialist but ended up losing out on the role. The 2023 fourth-round pick failed to haul in his only target across 14 games with Cincinnati last season but managed to amass 1,084 kick-return yards and returned one kickoff for a touchdown. He will now look to catch on with another team.
