Russini mentioned Titans players recruiting Jones on social media, and confirmed the Falcons have spoken with them. They’re still in the mix but Russini says as of now they’re a “long shot” to land Jones.

According to Over The Cap, the Falcons would incur a dead money hit of $23.25 million for trading Jones before June 1, but only $7.75 million in dead money after that date as well as $15.3 million in cap savings.
