The Bengals opted to part ways with cornerback Adam Jones on Friday, according to the team website. The team reportedly told Jones they were going to decline their option on the third year of his contract, letting the deal run out at the close of the league year next week.
This move clears an extra $6.9 million on what would have been the final year of a three-year, $24 million contract signed following the 2015 season.
