Eagles 2017 second-round pick Sidney Jones cleared waivers but he won’t be heading back to Philadelphia.
Instead, Jones is signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars’ practice squad, according to a report from ESPN’s Tim McManus.
The Jags figure to be one of the worst teams in the NFL this season but that actually makes Jacksonville a good landing spot for him. Jones will have more of an opportunity to prove himself on a rebuilding team.
This summer has really been a “Life comes at you fast” lesson for Jones and his supporters.
