Jones (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Jones was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, but he was able to participate without any restrictions during Thursday's session and should be good to go against Arizona on Sunday. Jones has played every single defensive snap in nine of 11 games this season, and over his last three outings he's tallied 31 tackles (17 solo).

Seahawks' Ernest Jones: Still working through knee injury
Rotowire
Jones (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Jones played through elbow and knee injuries during the Seahawks' 26-21 win over the Jets this past Sunday, and he finished the game with eight tackles (six solo) while playing every single defensive snap. Jones appears to be past the elbow injury, and while he continues to work through a knee issue, that shouldn't prohibit him from suiting up against the Cardinals on Sunday.

Rotowire
Jones (neck) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Rams, John Boyle of Seattle's official website reports.
Jones popped up on the injury report Friday with neck stiffness, ultimately missing practice as a result.

Rotowire
Tennessee traded Jones to Seattle on Wednesday in exchange for linebacker Jerome Baker and a fourth-round draft pick, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Rotowire
Jones recorded 10 tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Colts.

Titans' Ernest Jones: Plays every snap versus Jets
Rotowire
Jones recorded nine tackles (six solo), including two tackles for loss, in the Titans' loss to the Jets on Sunday.
More notably, Jones played 100 percent of the defensive snaps after playing just 46 percent of the downs in his Week 1 debut with the team following Jones' acquisition from the Rams just ahead of the season. Jones should easily accrue 100-plus tackles once again in 2024 after picking up 145 last year with Los Angeles.

Rams' Ernest Jones: Allowed to seek trade
Rotowire
The Rams granted Jones and his agents permission to seek a trade Sunday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Heading into the final season of his rookie deal, Jones was hoping to land an extension with the Rams after registering career highs in both tackles (145) and sacks (4.5) in 2023. However, the two sides were unable to come to an agreement in the offseason and training camp, prompting the Rams to grant the 2021 third-round pick permission to engage with other teams on a trade. The Rams will presumably hope to have a trade in place before they have to trim their roster to 53 players Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET.

Rotowire
Jones was sidelined for Friday's pracice due to a knee injury, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Jones dealt with this same injury during OTAs and has not completely recovered from it yet. When healthy, he is expected to start next to Christian Rozeboom at inside linebacker this season.

Rams' Ernest Jones: Not playing Week 18
Rotowire
Jones (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Jones was among seven key contributors that the Rams listed as doubtful -- and one of five for noninjury reasons -- ahead of the regular-season finale. The Rams will be the NFC's No. 6 or 7 seed regardless of the outcome of Week 18 games, so Jones and some of the team's other stars will get a respite Sunday to avoid sustaining potential injuries in advance of the postseason. The linebacker finishes the regular season with 145 tackles, 4.5 sacks and six pass breakups over 15 appearances.

Rams head coach Sean McVay said Jones won't play Sunday in San Francisco, Greg Beacham of the Associated Press reports.
