The Eagles’ search for defensive help continues this week. Next up – a workout with free agent defensive lineman Datone Jones (Twitter link via NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport). 
Jones spent the offseason with the Jaguars, but was dropped before final cuts. The Colts and Raiders also took recent looks at Jones, but did not sign him. The 29-year-old is looking to get back into the NFL mix – he saw time in just eight NFL games between 2017 and 2018, a far cry from his usage early on with the Packers.
From 2013-2016, Jones made 59 appearances (seven starts) for Green Bay. He notched ten sacks in that span, though the 2013 first-round pick didn’t finish out strong on his rookie deal.
On Monday, the Eagles cut defensive tackle Akeem Spence, just one day after he saw the highest snap percentage of the season against the Cowboys. Anthony Rush, formerly of the Raiders’ taxi squad, took his place.
