Jones was waived Saturday by the Cowboys, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: A loaded Cowboys wide receiver depth chart made it unlikely Jones would finish on the final 53-man roster, a result that was confirmed Saturday.

Jones signed with the Cowboys' practice squad Tuesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The Steelers waived Jones on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Jones made a key recovery on Diontae Johnson's fumble in Sunday's loss to the Bills, but the 26-year-old Jones also dropped two passes. As a result, the Steelers promoted Amara Darboh from the practice squad and let Jones go. If Jones clears waivers, he'll likely land on the practice roster.

Jones totaled 24 yards on two receptions in Pittsburgh's 21 - 7 loss to Cleveland Thursday night.
Analysis: Injuries to JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) and Diontae Washington (concussion) created an opportunity for Jones to make his professional debut. He was targeted four times and could see more action if Smith-Schuster or Washington are unable to clear the league's concussion protocol. Fortunately for fantasy owners Pittsburgh has 10 days until playing Cincinnati in Week 12.

The Steelers signed Jones to the active roster from the practice squad Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jones' opportunity on the 53-man roster comes with Ryan Switzer (back) ruled out for Thursday's divisional tilt against the Browns. The Memphis product spent time on the practice squads of the Texans and Chiefs after going undrafted in 2016, and he now gets his first chance on an active roster. Jones logged a 4.48 40-yard dash time during the 2016 combine, and he could offer upside on special teams.
