Jones is hanging on by a thread. He'll still be in the league, but barring some crazy turn of events, his fantasy relevance is done.

I definitely saw light after WAS cut him, as being "cut" had little to do with his on field performance for them. However, being cut by IND is close to a death sentence for his fantasy relevance. Could be they needed to free up a spot for week 1 and he just didn't have enough time to earn a look from the staff. Regardless it looks bad. I dropped him.

I picked him up in a rebuild where I had some room. I'll hold onto him a bit longer, but I'd drop him for anyone else that llooks like they might break out at this point.

Haha, what? Where's the tinfoil hat emoji?
Seems like it's Doctson's turn to get that treatment.
Ugh. I was so excited a year ago, Desean Jackson and Pierre Garcon were gonna get out of his way and he'd shine. Now it's a year later and I'm telling myself the same thing, "Terrelle Pryor, Ryan Grant and Brian Quick are all free agents next year, 2018 is his time to shine"

Well he hasn't fumbled in like a year right? Improvement.

But seriously if he worked on that while Redskins shunned him he could be a valuable piece in the IND backfield. Big with decent hands

Matt Jones will be promoted from the practice squad to the Colts' active roster for Week 3 against the Browns.
The Colts need a healthy body to fill out their backfield with Marlon Mack (shoulder) sidelined for Week 3. Jones will serve as the No. 3 back behind Frank Gore and Robert Turbin on Sunday. He can be ignored for fantasy purposes.


Uh oh...queue the Frank Gore replacement talk....

Just can't quit this guy for some reason. I thought he was severely over valued when Morris left and Jones was anointed the new workhorse. However, he quickly became a player that I wanted to stash once he fell out of favour in WAS and his value plummeted. So of course I picked him back up wherever I could this past week. ....Maybe I'll finally learn my lesson and quit tying up a roster spot on this guy.

With Turbin out for the year, Jones now becomes a worthy add if he's free in a deep league. If Gore goes down, Mack will not be a 3-down workhorse.

Most likely, of course, is that the team would have a gross committee of 3-4 backs, but there's a chance Jones rises to the top and leads a backfield committee.
