From the article

Jones got banged up in Week 8 but is expected to play. His role had already taken a huge hit before suffering a knee injury early in the fourth quarter. Through three quarters, Jordan Mason out-snapped Jones 22-14 and out-carried him 10-7. Mason even ran three more routes and saw two targets to Jones's one.

Jones' declining role and knee injury make him a fade despite playing status.

Jones is a sit in Week 8 despite being expected to play after suffering a knee injury early in the fourth quarter. His role had already taken a huge hit before the injury. Through three quarters, Jordan Mason out-snapped Jones 22-14 and out-carried him 10-7, while also running three more routes and seeing two targets to Jones's one. It's hard to imagine Jones getting more work as his health continues to decline.
