Report: Thomas Jones likely to be free agent

NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora reports the Jets do not anticipate picking up Thomas Jones' $3.3 million roster bonus.

This backs up beat writer Dave Hutchinson's previous report. The Jets are reportedly holding out hope that Jones will restructure his deal, though it remains an unlikely scenario. Jones will become a free agent on March 9, when his roster bonus is declined. Even after back-to-back career years, he won't get a lucrative deal on the open market going on age 32. Expect a short-term contract with incentives instead. Feb. 27 - 1:37 pm et
