Jones has had back surgery and will be out a number of weeks, ESPN.com reports. | ||||||
A second-year player, Jones was going to be a depth lineman who could play any position. With back injuries, however, it's tough to nail down a recovery time. He could be out a couple regular season games or he could miss the entire season. | ||||||
| Wed Apr 30 2014 | 15:31 | Rams G/C Barrett Jones bigger and stronger | ||||
According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Rams second-year G/C Barrett Jones looks noticeably bigger and stronger. | ||||||
Jones, the 113th overall pick in last year's draft, didn't play a single snap as a rookie. At 6-foot-4 and 308 pounds, he needed to bulk up. Technically, he can play all five positions on the offensive line but doesn't project as a starter at any. Jones will battle for a job to be part of the 46-man active gameday roster. | ||||||

Rams activated G/C Barrett Jones (foot) from the active/PUP list. | ||||||
He's been cleared to practice. Rokevious Watkins' release opens the door for Jones to make a run at St. Louis' starting left guard job, where he'll compete with Chris Williams. Most likely, Jones will end up as a "swing" backup. | ||||||

| Mon Jul 22 2013 | 23:44 | Barrett Jones to miss beginning of Rams camp | ||||
Rams rookie G/C Barrett Jones will miss the first 1-2 weeks of training camp while continuing to recover from a Lisfranc fracture. | ||||||
The Rams had expected Jones to be ready for training camp, so he's behind schedule. The fourth-rounder stands little chance of winning a starting job before Week 1. Ex-Bears first-round pick Chris Williams is the favorite at left guard. | ||||||
