News broke on Friday that the Redskins were looking to shop out-of-favor running back Matt Jones. Recurring fumbling issues from his rookie season probably mean that the Redskins will be lucky to get anything in return.
- Jones’ career with Washington thus far includes 20 total starts and 243 attempts for 950 yards. He racked up 6 rushing touchdowns and 1 receiving score. Jones was given the ball 99 times in 2016, and ran for 460 yards with three touchdowns. He averaged 4.6 yards per carry before being benched for Rob Kelley in Week 7.
- Jones was seldom used in the passing game and accounted for just 16.
