Per ESPN's John Keim, Jones has missed Washington's practice sessions each of the last two days while battling an injured knee.

Jones was injured during Washington's 20-17 loss against the Detroit Lions.

This is another setback for Jones after he already dealt with a shoulder injury during the preseason.

The second-year back tallied a solid 490 yards and three touchdowns on the ground as a rookie in 2015 alongside Alfred Morris in the Washington backfield.
