Cincy Jungle on Charlie Jones
From the article
Jones didn't exactly help his case as a receiver against Detroit. He finished the game without a catch (was close to making a long one from Joe Flacco) and had one fair catch. Meanwhile, Meyers made plays on offense. Ke'Shawn Williams had a 48-yard kickoff return, a seven-yard punt return, and an eight-yard end-around.
STACKED’s take
Jones' special-teams value at risk if Bengals find offensive versatility elsewhere.
Jones has established himself as one of the Bengals' most valuable special-teams players with three career return touchdowns that loom large in the roster equation. However, he didn't help his case as a receiver against Detroit, finishing without a catch (was close to making a long one from Joe Flacco) and recording one fair catch. Meanwhile, Dohnte Meyers made plays on offense, Ke'Shawn Williams had a 48-yard kickoff return and seven-yard punt return, and Colbie Young continued to make plays downfield. Jones' special-teams value could ultimately save him, but if the Bengals decide they can replace his return duties while gaining more offensive versatility from another receiver, he could become vulnerable.
