Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN, Josh Jones is asking the Packers to be traded.

Josh Jones, a second-round pick just two years ago, is skipping the Packers’ OTAs because he’s hoping to force a trade, a source told ESPN.

Jones has been working out in Florida with a trainer after he left the Packers’ offseason program about a month ago.

The source said Jones, who was the 61st overall pick in the 2017 draft, believes it would be best for both him and the Packers if they parted ways.
