Source: Pack to cut 2017 2nd-round pick Jones

The Green Bay Packers will release safety Josh Jones on Sunday and the former second-round pick is likely to get claimed on waivers, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Jones, the 61st overall pick in the 2017 draft, has been in and out of the lineup during his two years in Green Bay, starting 12 games over two years. He skipped the Packers' voluntary offseason workouts this year, unhappy with his role on the team.

The Packers opened last season with former undrafted rookie Kentrell Brice and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix at safety.
