Seahawks acquire Sidney Jones in trade with Jaguars

The Jaguars will receive a 2022 six-round pick in return. 

Jones, 25, was a second-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles back in 2017 after a standout career with the Washington Huskies.

Unfortunately, injuries follow Jones back to his roots. He’s appeared in a total of 31 games over four seasons. During that span, the corner has tallied 76 tackles, 19 passes defended and two interceptions.

According to Pro Football Focus, Jones yielded a 96.4 passer rating when targeted with the Jaguars last season.

As for the Seahawks, they have major question marks in the defensive secondary heading into their Week 1 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Free-agent signing Ahkello Witherspoon is slated to start next to Tre Flowers. Outside of that, there’s a ton of issues when it comes to depth. That includes rookie fourth-round pick Tre Brown being sidelined with a knee injury.
