The Raiders put Jones on the non-football injury list two weeks ago, which means that he was scheduled to miss at least four games.
Jones has not practiced with the team during the regular season. He was sent away from the team after several social media posts criticizing the ownership and front office of the Raiders.
Jones signed a three-year, $51 million deal with the Raiders during the 2022 offseason. He recorded 4.5 sacks in his first season with the team, starting 15 games.
