Former Seattle offensive lineman Jamarco Jones will sign a two-year, $5.75M deal with the Titans, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. The deal will also include $3.15M guaranteed, marking a solid pay bump for the 25-year-old.
Jones, a 2018 fifth-round pick, has been hampered by injuries throughout his young career. This year, he was limited to just ten games with a back issue, though he did make a couple starts in place of Damien Lewis at left guard. Still, he’s been productive while healthy. According to Pro Football Focus, he’s allowed just three sacks while on the field throughout his entire career.
Jones isn’t a world-beater, but he should be a versatile piece of the puzzle for the Titans. Last year alone, he saw time at three different positions — right tackle, right guard, and left guard. In 2020, he played at every spot except center.
His exact role isn’t quite clear, but he’ll provide valuable support for an offensive line that will be without veteran Rodger Saffold.
