Jones returns to the Lions, but it's hard to get excited about the 33-year-old's Fantasy prospects for the 2023 season. In addition to joining a run-first offense with a clear No. 1 target (Amon-Ra St. Brown), it's fair to question what Jones still has to offer from a Fantasy standpoint. Jones finished inside the top 24 WRs on a weekly basis just once in 2022. He is best left undrafted.
Jones is back with the Lions after a two-year stint in Jacksonville. Jones' three best fantasy campaigns came during his five seasons in Detroit (2016-20), one of which was an 11th-place finish back in 2017. Of course, that was when Jones was in his prime at age 27. He's now 33 years old and coming off a season in which he posted his lowest target share (15%) since 2013 and his worst fantasy PPG mark (7.3) since his rookie season (2012). The Detroit offense is on the ascent, so Jones could have some fantasy value during Jameson Williams' six-game suspension, but he'll eventually fall in line behind him and Amon-Ra St. Brown, leaving Jones without much fantasy appeal.
