STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Jones's elite touch volume (22 last week) makes him a volume-based RB2 despite efficiency concerns.

Jones is battling through a banged-up knee but played 81.8% of snaps last week with 73.9% of rushing attempts, 58.8% route share, and 20.7% target share, finishing with 22 touches and 92 total yards. The source notes uncertainty about how long he'll hold up to this workload but advises fantasy gamers to appreciate it while available. Jones ranks 34th among 43 qualifying rushers in explosive run rate, 37th in yards after contact per attempt, and 34th in missed tackle rate. The source compares him to Alvin Kamara of the North—a volume-based RB2/flex. Miami ranks 18th in explosive run rate, 17th in missed tackle rate, and has allowed the third-fewest yards before contact per attempt.
