Eagles Sign Veteran CB Jonathan Jones to One-Year Deal

The veteran reunites with secondary coach Mike Pellegrino to reinforce depth behind Philadelphia's young starting trio.

Overview

  • Philadelphia confirmed Thursday night that it agreed to terms with Jonathan Jones on a one-year contract.
  • Jones, 32, appeared in 12 games with seven starts for Washington in 2025, recording 41 tackles, five pass breakups and a sack.
  • He brings a decade of experience with 152 games and about 80 starts, totaling 11 interceptions, 62 passes defensed and 10 forced fumbles.
  • Known for outside-slot versatility, he will compete with Michael Carter II, Kelee Ringo, Jakorian Bennett and Mac McWilliams while Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean and Riq Woolen anchor the group.
  • The addition comes days after the Eagles reached a deal with Riq Woolen, underscoring a push to fortify cornerback depth following last season's backup issues reported locally.
