Los Angeles Rams

Jones was selected in the third round with the 103rd overall pick of the 2021 NFL draft by the Los Angeles Rams.[11] Jones signed his four-year rookie contract with the Rams on July 22, 2021.[12]

Jones entered his rookie season in 2021 as a backup inside linebacker behind Kenny Young and Troy Reeder. He was inserted into the starting lineup after the Rams traded Young prior to Week 8. In Week 14, Jones intercepted a pass from Kyler Murray in a 30–23 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 16 and was placed on injured reserve on December 28, finishing the regular season with 61 tackles and one sack, with four passes defensed and two interceptions through 15 games and seven starts.[13] Jones was activated on January 29, 2022, for the National Football Conference Championship game, contributing two tackles as he backed up Reeder in the Rams' 20–17 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. In Super Bowl LVI, Jones got the start at inside linebacker and recorded seven tackles with one sack and a pass defensed in the Rams' 23–20 victory against the Cincinnati Bengals.[14]

During the team's voluntary minicamp in May 2022, the team announced that Jones was changing his jersey number from '50' to '53.'[15] In the 2022 season, Jones finished with 114 tackles, one interception, two passes defended, and one forced fumble.[16]

Jones became a full-time starter in 2023, starting 15 games while leading the team with 145 tackles.[17]

Tennessee Titans

Prior to the 2024 season, Jones was traded to the Tennessee Titans with a 2026 sixth-round pick for a 2026 fifth-round pick.[18]

Seattle Seahawks

On October 23, 2024, Jones was traded to the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for Jerome Baker and a 2025 fourth-round draft pick.[19][20]
