Jones' job with Jacksonville appeared to be in
jeopardy after the team signed Gabe Davis in free agency and
selected fellow wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. in the first
round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
Jones, 29, had 34 catches for 321 yards and two touchdowns in
nine games (seven starts) last season.
He totaled 287 receptions for 3,028 yards and 18 touchdowns in
104 career games (67 starts) with the Buffalo Bills, Oakland/Las
Vegas Raiders and Jaguars.
Slye's time in Jacksonville lasted all of approximately six
weeks. The then-free agent signed a one-year contract with the
Jaguars on March 18.
Jacksonville has Riley Patterson on the roster. The team also
selected fellow kicker Cam Little in the sixth round of the 2024
NFL Draft.
Slye, 28, converted 19 of 24 field goals and 32 of 35 extra
points in 17 games for the Washington Commanders last season.
He has made 82.3 percent of his field goals and just 88.5
percent of his PATs across five seasons with four teams.
