Raiders agree to terms with defensive end Datone Jones

NFL Media reported that the Las Vegas Raiders agreed to terms with veteran defensive end Datone Jones on Wednesday.

Jones, 30, was a first-round pick by the Green Bay Packers out of UCLA in 2013. He last played in 2018 with the Dallas Cowboys, having joined the team in 2017. His position coach there was new Raiders’ defensive line coach Rod Marinelli.

Marinelli has a lot of influence on Jon Gruden’s staff. Jones is the third former Dallas defensive lineman to join the Raiders this offseason, joining Maliek Collins and Daniel Ross in with the Raiders.
