No surprise here, but the Redskins are still shopping Matt Jones as the 53-man deadline approaches, sources tell Tom Pelissero of NFL.com (on Twitter). The Redskins have been looking to move Jones for much of the offseason. 
Jones was once the Redskins’ No. 1 running back, but he has been bypassed by Robert Kelley. He is further buried on the depth chart behind rookie Samaje Perine figures to see a good percentage of the carries and pass-catching specialist Chris Thompson. Jones is still a talented runner, but his tendency to put the ball on the ground has left him on the outs in Washington.
In June, Jones’ agent asked the Redskins to release him. Weeks later, he changed representation and hired Drew Rosenhaus. Rosenhaus presumably would like to see Jones released so that he can hook on elsewhere, but it should only be a matter of time before that happens anyway. Teams are mandated to trim their rosters from the current 90-man max down to 53 by Saturday afternoon.
