Bill Belichick won’t cite reasons for waiving Jack Jones: ‘Felt that we needed to move on’

Patriots coach Bill Belichick said Tuesday that he felt it was time to move on from Jack Jones.

The Patriots waived the second-year cornerback on Monday after he played a season-low 10 snaps against Indianapolis in Germany.

“Jack is a talented player,” Belichick said. “He showed that when he played for us at times, just in the end I just felt that we needed to move on. But, he’s a talented player.”

Jones remained on the Patriots’ roster as he faced weapons charges that stemmed from a June arrest at Logan Airport, where TSA officials found a pair of guns in his luggage.
